I'm wondering what the best practice for large disjunct queries in Solr is. A user wants to submit a query for several hundred thousand terms, like: (term1 OR term2 OR ... term500,000)
I know it might be better to break this up into multiple queries that can be merged on the user's end, but I'm wondering if there's guidance for a good limit of OR'ed terms per query. 100 terms? 200? 500? Any idea what kinds of data set or memory limitations might govern this threshold? Thanks, Joe -- I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength. *-Philippians 4:12-13*
