Sorry, I should have been more clear in my original email. :-) Indexing
is no problem, but searches sometimes are a problem. A search would come
back quickly, and the other times, it doesn't. According to the logs,
threads would get stuck in a waiting state after executing the cfsearch
statement. I think this happens if there are several people trying to
run searches at the same time.

Hi Angeli,
Solr may just need a little tweaking. Do you know why it's hanging,
or when? Is it during queries or indexing? Anything interesting in
the logs? It may need more memory, or there could be an issue reading
some files that you're indexing. I'd check into the logs to see why
Solr is struggling before undertaking a retrofit of the search engine,
it might save you a lot of time and resources, and Solr is already one
of the most popular enterprise search engines.
If you're certain you want to change search engines, you could
(relatively) easily use any one with a java client library or web
services/REST-based API. Elasticsearch is popular. It's based on
Lucene just like Solr is though. :)
Hope this helps.
Take Care,
Seth

Good afternoon, folks.
I'm wondering if anyone have has problems with searching via
<cfsearch>
and Soir on ColdFusion 11? One client I work for has about 1,000 PDF
files (some dozens pf pages long) indexed nightly. Daily, an
average of
about 1,000 searches would be run through the collection, some just
single words, and some phrases, some using "or". Sometimes, the Soir
search engine would slow down and get hung up, and occasionally we
have
to bounce Coldfusion's Add-On service. We didn't have this kind of
problem when we were using Verity on an older version of
ColdFusion. Is
Soir normally this flakey?
Also, are there any alternatives to Soir? What about Lucene... can it
index PDF files?
Thanks,
Angeli Wahlstedt
