Hmmm, I hadn't thought about that before. The shareSchema

Do you know for sure if the fact that this is coming from ZK
actually shares the schema object? 'Cause I've never
looked to see and it would be a good thing to have in my
head...
With SolrCloud, I have no idea whether the actual internal objects are
shared. Just now I tried to figure that out from the code, but I don't
already have an understanding of how that code works, and a quick glance
isn't enough to gain that knowledge.I can guarantee that you have a much
deeper understanding of those internals than I do!
My comments were to indicate that SolrCloud creates a situation where
the config/schema are shared in the sense that there's only one
canonical copy.
Thanks,
