In my case, injest rate is very high(above 300K docs/sec) and data are kept
inserted. So CPU is already bottleneck because of indexing.

older-style master/slave replication with http or scp takes long to copy
big files from master/slave.

That's why I setup two separate Solr Clouds. One for indexing and the other
for query.

Thanks,
Jae
