Hi I have a question regarding solr queries. My query basically contains thousand of OR conditions for authors (author:name1 OR author:name2 OR author:name3 OR author:name4 ...) The execution time on my index is huge (around 15 sec). When i tag all the associated documents with a custom field and value like authorlist:1 and then i change my query to just search for authorlist:1 it executes in 78 ms. How come there is such a big difference in exec-time? Can somebody please explain why there is sucha difference (maybe the query parser?) and if there is a way to speed this up?
Thx for the help
