It's not necessary to use facet.method=enum here at all, just facet on the field and trust the heuristics built in. If you insist on this be very sure you can afford the space. > > Will it use filterCache when I sent a query with filter, eg: > fq=state:CA ?? Don't know. Try it and look on admin/stats for the filter cache.

See above. You haven't told us how many docs in your index, so we have no way of estimating how much this'll cost you. Each entry will be maxDoc/8 roughly, and you'll have about 50 of them. Yes, though, if you take control of the facet.method you'll have to add it every time. > > 2) q=*:*&facet=true&facet.method=fc&facet.field=products --> To load the > values related to products to fieldCache. > > Again, while querying for this facet do I need to sent > facet.method=fc every time?
