This is very vague. What you *might* be talking about is the defaults for the ShardHandler, which is effectively the configuration for the internal HttpClient object. https://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrConfigXml#Configuration_of_Shard_Handlers_for_Distributed_searches This does indeed default to max connections per host of 20. It's probably better to define the shard handler in solr.xml rather than solrconfig.xml, so it only needs to be configured once: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Format+of+solr.xml#Formatofsolr.xml-The%3CshardHandlerFactory%3Eelement Thanks, Shawn
