Indexing speed: web v.s. solrj app

[Lance Norskog]

Is indexing via solrj faster than going through the web service? There are
three cases:
    Read a file from a local file system and indexing it directly,
    Read a file on one machine and indexing it on another, and
    Run solrj and read a file, then directly update the index.

I'm talking about the last case v.s. the middle case: we are already feeding
solr from remote machines.

Thanks,

Lance
