Hi Shawn, thanks for your answer.
I apologise for my english, for "floating results" I meant random results in queries. As far as I know, we should split the synonyms file because of zookeeper, there is a limit in the size of files (1MB). All my synonyms are about 10MB. I have tried again in dev environment these steps: 1. put into zookeeper an updated synonym file sinonimi_freeling/sfak (added just one new synonym ) 2. reload the core using Core Admin UI Then I started to receive random results executing a simple query like: http://src-dev-3:8080/solr/0bis/select/?q=smartphone&fl=*&rows=24 There are random numFound in <result name="response" numFound="641" start="0" maxScore="4.653946"> and the order of documents vary. So, now I'm pretty afraid to update such synonyms because I cannot stop and start all instances in production. I'll take a look at how reload the entire collection through the Collection API. thanks again for your suggestions.
