If you are using the DataImportHandler, you will not be able to search
new data until the full-import or delta-import is complete and the
update is committed. When I do a full reindex, it takes about 5 hours,
and until it is finished, I cannot search it.
I have not tried to issue a manual commit in the middle of an import to
see whether that makes data inserted up to that point searchable, but I
would not expect that to work.
If you need this kind of functionality, you may need to change your
build system so that a full import clears the index manually and then
does a series of delta-import batches.

Hi,
Can I perform searches against the index while it is being imported?
Does importing add 1 document at a time or will solr make a temporary index and
switch to that index when indexing is done?
Thanks,
Tri
