The only place that makes sense for async in solr is sending multiple requests as part of a distributed search (potentially hundreds) and not having to have a thread for each. But even in that case I'm not sure it's really a big deal - for each request, the work required of the system as a whole is much greater than the resources a thread takes up (and we use a thread pool to avoid creating/destroying threads all the time). -Yonik http://www.lucidimagination.com
