When you open a searcher, it's for the entire index. You may want to go distributed and keep the newest 15 days of data in a separate index from the rest. For my own index, I use this hot/cold shard setup. I have a nightly process that indexes data that needs to be moved into the cold shards and deletes it from the hot shard. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DistributedSearch SolrCloud is the future of distributed search, but it does not have built-in support for a hot/cold shard setup. You'd need to manage that yourself with manual sharding. A custom sharding plugin to automate indexing would likely be very very involved, it would probably be easier to manage it outside of SolrCloud. Thanks, Shawn
