1. About the commit strategy, all the ExtractingRequestHandler (request handler that uses Tika to extract content from the input file) will do is extract the content of your file and add it to a SolrInputDocument. The commit strategy should not change because of this, compared to other documents you might be indexing. It is usually not recommended to commit on every new / updated document.
2. Don't know if I understand the question. you can add all the static fields you want to the document by adding the "literal." prefix to the name of the fields when using ExtractingRequestHandler (as you are doing with " literal.id"). You can also leave empty fields if they are not marked as "required" at the schema.xml file. See: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/ExtractingRequestHandler#Literals 3. Solr cores can work almost as completely different Solr instances. You could tell one core to replicate from another core. I don't think this would be of any help here. If you want to separate the indexing operations from the query operations, you could probably use different machines, that's usually a better option. Configure the indexing box as master and the query box as slave. Here you have some more information about it: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrReplication Were this the answers you were looking for or did I misunderstand your questions?
