Thanks Erick and Toke, Also, I read here <https://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrCaching#filterCache> that, filterCache can also be used for faceting with facet.method=enum. So, I am bit confused here on which one to use for faceting.
One more thing here is I have different types of facets. (For example - Product List, States). The Product List facet has lot many unique values (around 10 million), where as States list will be in hundreds. So, I want to come up with the numbers for size of fieldValueCache/filterCache and pre-populate this.
