Found why! On Solr 1.4 dismax param mm defaults to 1 if not specified, which is equivalent to AND. On Solr 4.0 if mm is not specified, the default operator is used, which defaults to OR. That made return much more results for each query I was running, increasing the response time and the CPU usage.
