I think, you don't understand what I mean. 1) I create collection with X shards, each shard has hash range (by CREATE collection command) 2) I add Y new shards in the same collection, each shard hasn't hash range, I call them gateways (by CREATE core command) 3) I add LoadBalancer over Y gateways, so all client queries will pass through gateways
In this case, my Y gateways forward queries and merge results only (WITHOUT searching in their index) and my X shards search in index only (WITHOUT forward queries and merge results). It gives me the best queries performance. -- Sent from: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Solr-User-f472068.html
