The facet refinement can be a lot heavier than the initial call. For
some of our queries (with unpatched Solr), we observed that it took 10
times as long.


Markus: You are hitting Solr in a way that scales very poorly. Maybe you
can use export instead?

If you really need the faceting with full counts & everything, consider
switching to a single-shard (and multiple replicas) setup as that
removes the need for the refinement phase.
