Is it just that the catalogue views are not defined in the XML, or that they must be dynamic, and cannot be defined ahead of time? If they can be defined at indexing time, this would be the preferable approach, IMHO. > 2.

[...] Yes, 1500 values should be fine. However, that answer depends on various factors, such as the size of your data, and whether you are doing sorting, faceting, highlighting, etc. The best way would be to set up a test case, measure the search times, and see if they meet your needs.
