[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-6524) Collections left in recovery state after node restart because recovery sleep time increases exponentially between retries

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6524?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14135403#comment-14135403 ] 

Shalin Shekhar Mangar commented on SOLR-6524:
---------------------------------------------

I think, at a minimum, we should reduce the max wait time of 600 seconds (10 minutes).

> The RecoveryStrategy has a retry wait which is exponential in nature. The first time it waits for 1 second before retrying recovery, then 2 seconds, then 4 seconds and so on.
> This causes problems when running a large number of collections in SolrCloud. We saw a case where there were 500 collections on 3 nodes (1 shard, 3 replicas) and after a node is restarted, many collections can't come back up from recovery because:
> # The overseer is slow to process events (I'll create another issue for it)
> # Because the overseer is slow, cluster state updates are delayed and therefore recovery cannot succeed (WaitForState hangs while waiting to see recovery state on replicas)
> # Because recovery can't succeed immediately, the recovery thread sleeps for larger and larger amounts of time
> # Even after the whole overseer queue is cleared up, many recovery threads have such a long sleep that they won't even attempt to recover for many minutes (upto 10 minutes).
