Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-7121:
------------------------------------

bq. Some users will have an aweful lot of cores.

My primary Solr install has 32 Solr cores, and only 8 CPU cores.  Each server 
is using a different subset of those 32 cores - they are not all in use.  I 
would most definitely prefer not to have 32 additional actively running threads 
-- there aren't enough CPUs.

My Solr install, despite the number of cores, documents, and total index size 
(over 100GB), is *tiny* compared to some of what's out there.  When Erick 
started working on LotsOfCores functionality so that Solr can scale to 
thousands of cores on a single server and still perform well, that was most 
definitely not theoretical work.


> Solr nodes should go down based on configurable thresholds and not rely on

> Currently, there is no way to control when a Solr node goes down.
> If the server is having high GC pauses or too many threads or is just getting 
> too many queries due to some bad load-balancer, the cores in the machine keep 
> on serving unless they exhaust the machine's resources and everything comes 
> to a stall.
> Such a slow-dying core can affect other cores as well by taking huge time to 
> serve their distributed queries.
> There should be a way to specify some threshold values beyond which the 
> targeted core can its ill-health and proactively go down to recover.
> When the load improves, the core should come up automatically.
