As with many features in Solr, there is no hard limit per se, but the "rule"
is to use the feature in moderation.
If you find yourself using a "big" filter query, it likely means that you
have chosen a poor design or are misusing Solr in some way. The response
should be to correct your design, not try to continue using a "big" filter
query.
As a generality, try to keep your URL length well under 2048
characters/bytes, otherwise you're risking running into configuration issues
with various parts of the network infrastructure.
Long URLs also make reading and troubleshooting log files rather difficult.
All of that said, please describe your use case. First, let's make sure that
it is an appropriate use case for Solr.

Hi,
Is there any limit on how big a filter query can be ?
What are the values that should be set properly for handling big filter
queries.
thanks,
Prasi
