Yeah we need a performance comparison, I haven't had time to put one together. If/when I do I'll compare Bobo performance against Solr bitset intersection based facets, compare memory consumption.
For near realtime Solr needs to cache and merge bitsets at the SegmentReader level, and Bobo needs to be upgraded to work with Lucene 2.9's searching at the segment level (currently it uses a MultiSearcher). Distributed search on either should be fairly straightforward?
