WebService::Solr only implements the LWP agent part of working with Solr, which still leaves one to extract the actual JSON what LWP gives you, plus it has fatal wide-character issues that "use utf8::all" isn't able to fix, and also does not support xml and csv (other formats solr can provide).
Actually will parse a response as a WebService::Solr::Document (or actually a collection of) with accessors to fields and a to_xml method, which I have used in production.

The LWP agent part can be set to what you want. Say, AnyEvent::HTTP::LWP::UserAgent or other if you wish, which is good when running Catalyst in an event environment. And as other format loaders are just HTTP Post interfaces then you can just intropect the Agent ( ->agent ) from WebService::Solr.

Have used the above to create 100MB XML documents and post those to Solr server.

Apache::Solr is much nicer in that it provides something resumbling a dbic result set, but I've already encountered a few things that seem like bugs and sending the resultsetlike object to the stash in the same way as a dbic resultset doesn't seem to work the same way.

Are other people using Solr based models? if so are you using either of the two CPAN modules or something else? Do you have examples and or notes you can share?
