I (jokingly) propose we take it a step further and drop Java :)! I'm
getting tired of trying to scale GC'ing JVMs!

Just to add to the “use jetty for Solr” argument - Solr 5.0 will no longer
consider itself a webapp and will consider the fact that Jetty is a used an

We won’t necessarily make it impossible to use a different container, but the
project won’t condone it or support it and may do some things that assume
Jetty. Solr is taking over this layer in 5.0.

In terms of adding or fixing documentation, the "Installing Solr" page
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Installing+Solr)
includes a yellow box that says:
"Solr ships with a working Jetty server, with optimized settings for
Solr, inside the example directory. It is recommended that you use the
provided Jetty server for optimal performance. If you absolutely must
use a different servlet container then continue to the next section on
how to install Solr."
So, it's stated, but maybe not in a way that makes it clear to most
users. And maybe it needs to be repeated in another section.
Suggestions?
I did find this page,
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Running+Solr+on+Jetty,
which pretty much contradicts the previous text. I'll fix that now.
Other recommendations for where doc could be more clear are welcome.

Hmm, thats an interesting move. I'm on the fence on that one but it surely
simplifies some things. Good info, thanks!

Thought you may want to have a look at this:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4792
P.S: There are no timelines for 5.0 for now, but it's the future
nevertheless.

I agree with Jonathan (and Shawn on the Jetty explanation), I think the
docs should make this a bit more clear - I notice many people choosing
Tomcat and then learning these details after, possibly regretting it.
I'd be glad to modify the docs but I want to be careful how it is worded.
Is it fair to go as far as saying Jetty is 100% THE "recommended"
container
for Solr, or should a recommendation be avoided, and maybe just a list of
pros/cons?
Cheers,
Tim
