I have used that type of location searching. But I have not used spatial search. I wrote my logic at application end. I have cached the location ids and their lat/lang. When queries are comming for any location say "New Delhi" then my location searche logic at application end calculate the distance from "New Delhi" to other locations from my cache and short lists the only location which are in my radious. and then I have goto solr for search on all locations i have got from my logic.
It works faster because it worked on only some data near about 500 locations. But in spatial search that calculation is done for all document counts which we have . So this workaround does not impact on performance when my index size will grow up but spatial search do. ----- Grijesh -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Solr-4-0-Spatial-Search-How-to-tp2245592p2253682.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
