Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-683: ----------------------------------- Here's the problem: deadlock is possible when the max number of concurrent HTTP requests is less than the number of possible HTTP requests (from both top-level clients, and by other shards). Consider the simplest case of two shards, each with just a single thread dedicated to handling incoming HTTP requests. A top-level request comes into each shard, and each shard queries the other. The second request to each shard blocks because the first thread has not yet completed.
