Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-264:
-----------------------------------
Yeah, I briefly thought of that... but decided it might be OK (won't cause an
infinite loop) since sorting is done via a priority queue.
But thinking on this further, it still has a lot of problems besides a single
query:
- caching... oops, there goes your randomness
- code that needs to query more than once (first pass gets "n" docs, then
requests more)
