As Erick has said, the rabbit hole is very deep.I've been looking into
it for a few years now.  There are parts of it that are a complete mystery.

Depending on exactly what you're looking for, one approach is to examine
the SolrDispatchFilter class.  This is the entry point from the servlet
container for most HTTP requests, and a lot of Solr's startup
initialization is found there.

The solr/webapp/web/WEB-INF/web.xml file in the source code checkout is
what loads SolrDispatchFilter and a few other classes when Solr starts.

Thanks,
Shawn
