Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-4509:
------------------------------------

I was about to try upgrading httpclient on branch_5x to see if anything breaks, 
and went looking at release notes to see if there's any compelling reason to 
commit the upgrade.

The HC 4.4 beta release notes talk about stale connection checks and the 
inherent latency issues:

http://www.apache.org/dist/httpcomponents/httpclient/RELEASE_NOTES-4.4.x.txt

I don't know what the timeframe for the new HC release is, but perhaps we can 
let it be solved upstream?

> By disabling the Apache HTTP Client stale check I've witnessed a 2-4x 
> increase in throughput and reduction of over 100ms.  This patch was made in 
> the context of a project I'm leading, called Yokozuna, which relies on 
> distributed search.
> Here's the patch on Yokozuna: https://github.com/rzezeski/yokozuna/pull/26
> Here's a write-up I did on my findings: 
> http://www.zinascii.com/2013/solr-distributed-search-and-the-stale-check.html
> I'm happy to answer any questions or make changes to the patch to make it 
> acceptable.
