OK, something is not right here. What are your autocommit settings? What you pasted above looks like you're looking at a searcher that has _just_ opened, which would mean either 1> you just had a hard commit with openSearcher=false happen or 2> you just had a soft commit happen
In either case, the cache is thrown out. That said, if you have autowarming for the cache set up you should be seeing some hits eventually. The top part is the _current_ searcher. The cumulative_* is all the cache results since the application started. A couple of blogs: http://searchhub.org/2013/08/23/understanding-transaction-logs-softcommit-and-commit-in-sorlcloud/ http://searchhub.org/2012/02/23/date-math-now-and-filter-queries/ I'm going to guess that you have soft commits or hard commits with openSearcher=true set to a very short interval and are having your filter caches invalidated very frequently, and that is misleading you, but that's just a guess.
