Hi all,

Is there any way to suppress that a certain query gets added to the
caches (or is allowed to affect cache statistics) in Solr?

*Reason:* We have a very search oriented website. The SEO-aspects
of the site is also important why almost the entire search-space is
traversable for indexing bots (googlebot for instance). These bots
are a substantial part of the traffic on the site*. Needless to say, the
usage pattern of a bot is very different from a human being ... and
in short the bots are filling the caches with "corner-data" from the
search-space. As a consequence human initiated searches suffer
a lot and are far from *as cached as they could be*.

I have no problem with serving a bot a cached page, the only problem
is that the bots are allowed to be part of the cache-statistics.

Is there any way to easily suppress this?

Best regards,
Tobias
