Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-502: ----------------------------------- bq. one could construct a query that takes a lot of time yet matches no documents... Actually, thinking a little further on this point, some of the longest queries are range queries or prefix queries. Solr uses the constant scoring variety of these, where *all* of the matching documents are collected up front. So these queries would never be interrupted in the middle, but only at the end after the majority of the work had been done. > Add search time out support > --------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-502 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-502 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: search > Reporter: Sean Timm > Assignee: Otis Gospodnetic > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.3 > > Attachments: SOLR-502.patch, SOLR-502.patch, SOLR-502.patch, > SOLR-502.patch, solrTimeout.patch, solrTimeout.patch, solrTimeout.patch, > solrTimeout.patch, solrTimeout.patch > > > Uses LUCENE-997 to add time out support to Solr. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
