Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-9521:
--------------------------------------

I was wondering if, rather than mine the log files an alternate approach would 
be to serialize out the top N filterCache and/or queryResultCache entries and 
use those for firstSearcher? That would require the system to be up and running 
at least once, but so does mining log files. Plus it "should" be more robust 
than creating a regex for mining the log file.

This is just off the top of my head, I haven't thought about the details, e.g. 
when to serialize that out. At core close? With a collections API call? As part 
of the autowarming when a new searcher is opened?

Throwing this out for discussion, no real opinion either way.

> The only way I know of to warm the first searcher before it is opened, is to 
> hard code warming queries in
> {code:xml}<listener event="firstSearcher" 
> class="solr.QuerySenderListener">{code}
> For our application, hard-coding is not a good solution since some of our 
> more expensive filter queries change periodically.  
> I have created a plugin that warms the first searcher from the most recent 
> entries in the log files.  In my opinion this capability ought to be part of 
> solr, so I'm contributing my code in the hopes that it can be incorporated.
> It works by wrapping an instance of QuerySenderListener, setting its 
> "queries" argument from recent queries from the log files.  It is configured 
> like this:
> {code:xml}
> <listener event="firstSearcher" class="solrplugin.LogFileWarmer">
>   <!-- The arguments shown below are the defaults and could be omitted -->
>   <!-- A list of filenames to search.  They are searched in the order
>        listed, and the lines in each file are searched in reverse
>        order, so that the most recent queries are used to warm the
>        cache.  Searching stops when it has gathered enough queries.
