I don't know - the quality/performance point as well as which knobs to tweak is extremely dependent on your corpus and your hardware. A person with better understanding of carrot might be able to do better sanity checking, but I am not at all at that level. Related, it seems to me that the question of how to tweak the clustering has little to do with Solr and a lot to do with carrot (assuming here that carrot is the bottleneck). You might have more success asking in a carrot forum? - Toke Eskildsen, State and University Library, Denmark
