Hi Hoss,

The indexes are local. Also they are very different sizes and I think that the merged results could be really wonky when using DistributedSearch because of it (although I might be totally wrong about that).

As for the second part, I was thinking of trying to replace the standard SolrIndexSearcher with one that employs a MultiSearcher. But I'm not very familiar with the workings of Solr, especially with respect to the caching that goes on. I thought that maybe people who are more familiar with it might have some tips on how to go about it. Or perhaps there are reasons that make this a bad idea.

If you've been using a MultiSearcher to query multiple *remote* searchers, then Distributed searching in solr should be a appropriate.

if you're use to useing MultiSearcher as a way of aggregating from multiple *local* indexes distributed searching is probably going to seem slow compared to what you're use to (because of the overhead)

...i'm not really sure what you mean by that.
