Robert Krüger commented on SOLR-5043:
-------------------------------------

I agree that the solution to this should be simple because cases like SOLR-7884 
are certainly not the norm (I am the reporter btw). The proposed system 
property would be a perfectly sufficient and very welcome fix for this.

> hostanme lookup in SystemInfoHandler should be refactored to not block core 
> (re)load

> SystemInfoHandler currently lookups the hostname of the machine on it's init, 
> and caches for it's lifecycle -- there is a comment to the effect that the 
> reason for this is because on some machines (notably ones with wacky DNS 
> settings) looking up the hostname can take a long ass time in some JVMs...
> {noformat}
>   // on some platforms, resolving canonical hostname can cause the thread
>   // to block for several seconds if nameservices aren't available
>   // so resolve this once per handler instance 
>   //(ie: not static, so core reload will refresh)
> {noformat}
> But as we move forward with a lot more multi-core, solr-cloud, dynamically 
> updated instances, even paying this cost per core-reload is expensive.
> we should refactoring this so that SystemInfoHandler instances init 
> immediately, with some kind of lazy loading of the hostname info in a 
> background thread, (especially since hte only real point of having that info 
> here is for UI use so you cna keep track of what machine you are looking at)
