Hello Jay, You can lose some precision in favour of performance: reducing precision of coordinates (by putting them onto grid) you can increase hit ratio; then try bbox for faster rough filtration http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SpatialSearch#bbox_-_Bounding-box_filter and apply geodist() function in frange to reduce amount of calculations &q={!frange l=0 u=5}geodist()<http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=*:*&sfield=store&pt=45.15,-93.85&facet.query={!frange%20l=0%20u=5}geodist()&facet.query={!frange%20l=5.001%20u=3000}geodist()&wt=xml&facet=true>
