In case our collection is very large (or there are a few of them) in a case when full replication is needed, Solr can use all the bandwidth of our network (if the disks are fast enough). This is good in some situations, but bad in others. Imagine that you have some collections being queried and of them starts to replicate a tens of gigabytes of data – all the other collections would suffer. Thankfully with the release of Solr 5 we got replication throttling and we can use it to limit the amount of data allowed to be transferred by Solr.

Solr Cookbook, Third Edition
As usual when we are not updating solr.pl for a long time that doesn’t mean that we are not doing anything. Similar to the previous period of silence we were writing. This time, after two years of from Apache Solr 4 Cookbook publication we are proud to announce that this Monday – 26.01.2015 Solr Cookbook Third Edition will be published.
