So here's what I'm seeing: I'm running Solr 3.1 I'm running a java client that executes a Httpget (I tried HttpPost) with a large shard list. If I remove a few shards from my current list it returns fine, when I use my full shard list I get a "HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request". If I execute it in firefox with a few shards removed it returns fine, with the full shard list I get a blank screen returned immediately.
My URI works at around 7800 characters but adding one more shard to it blows up. Any ideas? I've tried using SolrJ rather than httpget before but ran into similar issues but with even less shards.
