Thanks Hoss, Good to know! I have that exact situation: a complex function based on multiple field values that I always run for particular types of searches including global star searches to aid in sorting the results appropriately.

If I use function queries for : affecting the scoring of results, does it help to include those in the : warm up queries or does the same thing go for those also? IE is it : useless to add <str name="q">{!boost%20b=... ? boosts on *queries* probably won't affect your warming queries (unless you have concerned about a particularly important/expensive query and you always want that exact query to be warmed) but if you typically boost on some functions of field values then including those functions in your warming queries can be helpul to ensure that the field caches for the fields used in those functions are warmed up. -Hoss
