Right, but recently this has less of an affect because CloudSolrServer can now hash documents and directly send them to the right place. This option has become more historical. Just make sure you set the correct id field on the CloudSolrServer instance for this hashing to work (I think it defaults to “id”). > >> shutdownLBHttpSolrServer > > CloudSolrServer uses a LBHttpSolrServer behind the scenes to distribute > requests (that aren't updates directly to leaders).

Right, we should def add some javadoc, but this sends updates to shards in parallel rather than with a single thread. Can really increase update speed. Still not as powerful as using CloudSolrServer from multiple threads, but a nice improvement non the less. - Mark http://about.me/markrmiller > > I'm no dev but I can read so please excuse any errors on my part. > > Thanks, > Greg > > On Jan 31, 2014, at 11:40 AM, Software Dev <static.void....@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Can someone clarify what the following options are: >> >> - updatesToLeaders >> - shutdownLBHttpSolrServer >> - parallelUpdates >> >> Also, I remember in older version of Solr there was an efficient format >> that was used between SolrJ and Solr that is more compact.
