I have been reducing the parallelism of spark-solr part by 5. I had 40 executors loading 4 shards. Right now only 8 executors loading 4 shards. As a result, I can see a 10 times update improvement, and I suspect the update process had been overhelmed by spark. I have been able to keep 40 executor for document preprocessing and reducing to 8 executors within the same spark job by using the "dataframe.coalesce" feature which does not shuffle the data at all and keeps both spark cluster and solr quiet in term of network.
