I am about to deploy Solr into our production environment and I would like to do some benchmarking to determine how many slaves I will need to set up. Currently the only way I know how to benchmark is to use Apache Benchmark but I would like to be able to send random requests to the Solr... not just one request over and over.
I have a sample data set of 5000 user entered queries and I would like to be able to use AB to benchmark against all these random queries. Is this possible? FYI our current index is ~1.5 gigs with ~5m documents and we will be using faceting quite extensively. Are average requests per/day is ~2m. We will be running RHEL with about 8-12g ram. Any idea how many slaves might be required to handle our load?
