I have one answer here [0], but I'd be interested to hear what Solr users/devs/integrators have experienced on this topic.

My main question is with a long running process using Tika in the same JVM as my application. I'm running my file-system-crawler in its own JVM (not Solr's). On Tika mailing list, it is suggested to run Tika's code in it's own JVM and invoke it from my file-system-crawler using Runtime.getRuntime().exec(). I fully understand from Alex suggestion and link provided by Erick to use Tika outside Solr. But what about using Tika within the same JVM as my file-system-crawler application or should I be making a system call to invoke another JAR, that runs in its own JVM to extract the raw text? Are there known issues with Tika when used in a long running process? Steve
