The strategy in AbstractHdfsBolt is to set a boolean in the case of a tick
tuple and then sync if that value is true or if other conditions dictate a
sync.
(https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/master/external/storm-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/storm/hdfs/bolt/AbstractHdfsBolt.java#L154)
The benefit of that approach is to eliminate duplicate code (i.e. that
calls to ackCommittedTuples() and solrClient.commit()), which I think is a
substantial benefit.
Here that would looks something like:
```code
if (forceCommit || commitStgy.commit()) {
solrClient.commit(solrMapper.getCollection());
ackCommittedTuples();
}
```
With duplicate code removed I would be +1
A unit test would also be helpful. HdfsBolt example is here:
https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/master/external/storm-hdfs/src/test/java/org/apache/storm/hdfs/bolt/TestHdfsBolt.java#L175
