---------------------------------

             Summary: Requests aren't distributed evenly if the collection 
isn't present locally
                 Key: SOLR-7493
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7493
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SolrCloud
    Affects Versions: 5.0
            Reporter: Jeff Wartes


I had a SolrCloud cluster where every node is behind a simple round-robin load 
balancer.
This cluster had two collections (A, B), and the slices of each were 
partitioned such that one collection (A) used two thirds of the nodes, and the 
other collection (B) used the remaining third of the nodes.

I observed that every request for collection B that the load balancer sent to a 
node with (only) slices for collection A got proxied to one *specific* node 
hosting a slice for collection B. This node started running pretty hot, for 
obvious reasons.

This meant that one specific node was handling the fan-out for slightly more 
than two-thirds of the requests against collection B.
