Hmm, OK. You might want to look at the non-cached filter query stuff, it's quite recent. The point here is that it is a filter that is applied only after all of the less expensive filter queries are run, One of its uses is exactly ACL calculations. Rather than calculate the ACL for the entire doc set, it only calculates access for docs that have made it past all the other elements of the query.... See SOLR-2429 and note that it is a 3.4 (currently being released) only.
As to why your commits are taking so long, I have no idea given that you really haven't given us much to work with. How big is your index? Are you optimizing? Have you profiled the application to see what the bottleneck is (I/O, CPU, etc?). What else is running on your machine? It's quite surprising that it takes that long. How much memory are you giving the JVM? etc...
