This may be a silly question but is there any capacity gain if I run multiple jetty instances each having their own SOLR_HOME where each jetty instance/solr will replicate their index from a separate cluster of masters? I have a couple powerful multi-core servers and am not sure if/how a single JVM takes advantage of multi-cores and feel that I could increase my resource usage and hence search capacity by running multiple jetty instances per server as opposed to adding more machines.
Physical redundancy aside, is this acceptable practice? Thanks! Amit
