Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-13257:
------------------------------------

This looks promising. Are you able to open a Pull Request and submit this code? 
See [https://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToContribute#Working_with_GitHub] for how.

Also we need a JUnit test case that proves that the new code actually does what 
it promises to.

> For each shard in a distributed request, Solr currently routes each request 
> randomly via 
> [ShufflingReplicaListTransformer|https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/master/solr/core/src/java/org/apache/solr/handler/component/ShufflingReplicaListTransformer.java]
>  to a particular replica. In setups with replication factor >1, this normally 
> results in a situation where subsequent requests (which one would hope/expect 
> to leverage cached results from previous related requests) end up getting 
> routed to a replica that hasn't seen any related requests.
> The problem can be replicated by issuing a relatively expensive query (maybe 
> containing common terms?). The first request initializes the 
> {{queryResultCache}} on the consulted replicas. If replication factor >1 and 
> there are a sufficient number of shards, subsequent requests will likely be 
> routed to at least one replica that _hasn't_ seen the query before. The 
> replicas with uninitialized caches become a bottleneck, and from the client's 
> perspective, many subsequent requests appear not to benefit from caching at 
> all.
