Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-1028:
--------------------------------------

I picked a really bad name there, I'll change it. Swappable has nothing to do 
with swapping cores via core admin and everything to do with whether there's a 
limited number of cores that are loaded at once. "swappable" here means that 
the system can automatically load/unload cores as needed to handle the case 
where there are lots of cores and the installation can tolerate the pain of 
having cores load on demand and be slow for the first few queries.

There should be no change in behavior as far as the core admin handler "swap" 
commands no matter what the value of "swappable" in solr.xml is, it's actually 
an unrelated concept despite the name, but I can sure see why it would be 
confused....

Maybe "cacheable"?

Sorry for the confusion.

> usecase: I have many small cores (say one per user) on a single Solr box . 
> All the cores are not be always needed . But when I need it I should be able 
> to directly issue a search request and the core must be STARTED automatically 
> and the request must be served.
> This also requires that I must have an upper limit on the no:of cores that 
> should be loaded at any given point in time. If the limit is crossed the 
> CoreContainer must unload a core (preferably the least recently used core)  
> There must be a choice of specifying some cores as fixed. These cores must 
> never be unloaded
