I assumed the tf/idf would behave like this but it's behaving VERY differently/wrong so i wonder maybe something is wrong with my indexing strategy ? I think for a quicker solution (ok, hack :) ) I'll run two different queries (AND, OR) and merge them. Does SOLR support some kind of merging i can leverage or do i need to do it manually ? Thanks,
