I was looking at upgrading to a more recent version but am wondering, are
there any versions to avoid?
reason I ask is that I see some versions that have GC issues but am not sure
how/if Solr is affected by them.
7u40 has bug with "New minimum young generation size is not properly checked
by the JVM", and with "Irregular crash or corrupt term vectors in the Lucene
libraries"
7u51 has bug with "Memory leak when GCNotifier uses
create_from_platform_dependent_str()"
Use 7u25. Builds 40 through 51 have at least one known bug with
Lucene/Solr (which you mentioned), it's supposed to be fixed in build
60, slated for May 2014. I did not know about the others, but they
sound ominous.
