you can use the ScriptTransformer to perform the boost calcualtion and addition.
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler#ScriptTransformer
<dataConfig>
<script><![CDATA[
function f1(row) {
// Add boost
row.put('$docBoost',1.5);
return row;
}
]]></script>
<document>
<entity name="e" pk="id" transformer="script:f1"
query="select * from X">
....
</entity>
</document>
</dataConfig>
