I'd move to Solr 4.10.3 at least, but preferably Solr 5.x. Solr 5.2 is being readied for release as we speak, it'll probably be available in a week or so barring unforeseen problems and that's the one I'd go with by preference.
Do be aware, though, that the 5.x Solr world deprecates using a war file. It's still actually produced, but Solr is moving towards start scripts instead. This is something new to get used to.
