Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-8996:
--------------------------------------

I've gotta ask (without even looking at the code) why decreasing the 
probability of failure is good enough?

Feel free to say "that's the best we can do" and blow the question off, just 
askin'.....

And if it does fail, can we include as part of the message that "very 
occasional failures are acceptable"?

> The random Streaming Expression will return a *limited* random stream of 
> Tuples that match a query. This will be useful in many different scenarios 
> where random data sets are needed.
> Proposed syntax:
> {code}
> random(baskets, q="productID:productX", rows="100", fl="basketID") 
> {code}
> The sample code above will query the *baskets* collection and return 100 
> random *basketID's* where the productID is productX.
> The underlying implementation will rely on Solr's random field type.
