Shawn Heisey commented on LUCENE-5589:
--------------------------------------
My big concern with the release artifacts is user download time. The Solr
binary download is *HUGE* ... whenever I need to download a binary release to
update my custom projects, I dread doing so when I'm at home where bandwidth is
limited.
Solr's competition includes ElasticSearch. Their .zip download is 21.6MB and
the .tar.gz is even smaller. Solr's .war file is larger than either, and
that's just the tip of the iceberg. There's a lot more 'stuff' in a Solr
download, but the majority of users don't need that stuff. Why should they
download it unless they need it?
> release artifacts are too large.
