SolrCore.getRealtimeSearcher returns the existing searcher if there is one, or otherwise creates one. I did a little experiment to "assert false" where it creates one. It never tripped! On any commit, that searcher is installed as the realtime searcher, and furthermore a searcher is created on core open as well (of course). I wonder what led to the distinction in the first place. Has it always been this way or was there a time long ago when there was a real chance of not having a "real" searcher? Hmm.
