This is a quite big Sinonym corpus ! If it's not feasible to have only 1 big synonym file ( I haven't checked, so I assume the 1 Mb limit is true, even if strange) I would do an experiment : 1) testing query time with a Solr Classic config 2) Use an Ad Hoc Solr Core to manage Synonyms ( in this way we can keep it updated and use it with a custom version of the Sysnonym filter that will get the Synonyms directly from another Solr instance). 2b) develop a Solr plugin to provide this approach
If the synonym thesaurus is really big, I guess managing them through another Solr Core ( or something similar) locally , will be better than managing it with an external web service.
