Hi SOLR Community, What is the order of operations which SOLR applies to sorting? I've observed many times and across SOLR versions that a restrictive filter with a sort takes an extremely long time to return, suggesting to me that the SORT is applied before the filter.
An example situation is querying for fq:Foo=Bar vs querying for fq:Foo=Bar sort by Id desc. I've observed over many SOLR versions and collections that the former is orders of magnitude cheaper and quicker to respond, even when the result set is tiny (10-100). Does anyone in this forum know whether this is the default behavior and whether there is any way through the API or SOLR configuration to apply sorts after filters? Thanks, Stephen
