Hi all - I'm sure this topic has been covered before but I was unable to find any clear references online or in the mailing list.
Are there any rules of thumb for how many cores (aka shards, since I am using SolrCloud) is "too many" for one machine? I realize there is no one answer (depends on size of the machine, etc.) so I'm just looking for a rough idea. Something like the following would be very useful: * People commonly run up to X cores/shards on a mid-sized (4 or 8 core) server without any problems. * I have never heard of anyone successfully running X cores/shards on a single machine, even if you throw a lot of hardware at it. Thanks! - Ian
