Alan Woodward commented on SOLR-3284:
-------------------------------------

This interacts really badly with bad documents (SOLR-445) - once one of the 
Runners passes a bad document to SOLR, all documents subsequently processed by 
that Runner will be silently discarded, and there doesn't seem to be any way to 
detect this in client code.

> StreamingUpdateSolrServer eats exceptions thrown by lower level code, such as 
> HttpClient, when doing adds.  It may happen with other methods, though I know 
> that query and deleteByQuery will throw exceptions.  I believe that this is a 
> result of the queue/Runner design.  That's what makes SUSS perform better, 
> but it means you sacrifice the ability to programmatically determine that 
> there was a problem with your update.  All errors are logged via slf4j, but 
> that's not terribly helpful except with determining what went wrong after the 
> fact.
> When using CommonsHttpSolrServer, I've been able to rely on getting an 
> exception thrown by pretty much any error, letting me use try/catch to detect 
> problems.
> There's probably enough dependent code out there that it would not be a good 
> idea to change the design of SUSS, unless there were alternate constructors 
> or additional methods available to configure new/old behavior.  Fixing this 
> is probably not trivial, so it's probably a better idea to come up with a new 
> server object based on CHSS.  This is outside my current skillset.
