Hi Brent,

You said "from what I can tell there is no disk, network, or memory pressure "
- maybe you can share what and how you checked this? (see my signature for
a tool that can help with this)

I'm asking because the above is in conflict with "responses from solr still
come back with a <10ms qtime", which indicate search itself was fast, but
either disk or network were slow.  Try with rows=<big number here> and
rows=0 and that will give you an idea where to look.
