Search apps often need tweaking for best performance. We probably need to determine if you are IO bound (because the index is large enough that there are many disk seeks) or if you are CPU bound (possible, depending on the faceting). Perhaps one easy thing to start with is to add debugQuery=true and report the timings of the different components it gives. -Yonik http://lucenerevolution.org Lucene/Solr Conference, Boston Oct 7-8
