I think Jack was mostly thinking in "slam dunk" terms. I know of SolrCloud demo clusters with 500+ nodes, and at that point people said "it's going to work for our situation, we don't need to push more". As you start getting into that kind of scale, though, you really have a bunch of ops considera

Other that the per-node/per-collection limit of 2 billion documents per Lucene index, most of the limits of Solr are performance-based limits - Solr can handle it, but the performance may not be acceptable. Dynamic fields are a great example. Nothing prevents you from creating a document with, s
