Hello,

I have to index around 5-6 million documents in solr for full text search.
Each of these documents have around 25 additional metadata fields attached
to them. Each of the metadata fields individually are small (upto 64
characters). Common queries would be involving a search term along with
multiple metadata fields used to filter the data. So my questions is which
would provide better performance wrt search response time. (indexing time is
not a concern):

a. Index the text data as well as push all metadata fields into solr as
stored fields  and query solr for all the fields using a single query.
(Effectively solr does the filtering with metadata as well as search)

b. Store the metadata fields in a db like Mysql. Use solr only for full text
and then use the document ids returned from solr as an input to the database
to filter based on other metadata to retrieve the final set of documents.

Thanks
Arijit
