Eirck, I meant having a replication factor of 1 in SolrCloud would not be scalable, I ended up using a replication factor of 1 , because of the disjoint replicas issue for replication factor greater than 1 , that I mentioned previously in the other email thread.
Are you saying that a SolrCloud cluster with a replication factor of 1 would be performant as well ? I had read in SolrCloud documentation that the required number of replicas is directly proportional to the number of queries(concurrent).
