If it's only doing a long GC pause once a week, I think I'd prefer to go ahead and let it do the long GC pause. It would be less of an interruption than restarting Solr. Or is it getting into a mode after several days where it goes crazy and has a lot of major GC storms? If that's the case, is it happening even with the GC tuning parameters I gave you before? I run my Solr instances for months without issues. Right now, my production Solr instances have been running for 25 days. Thanks, Shawn
