[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-7191) Improve stability and startup performance of SolrCloud with thousands of collections

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7191?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14966893#comment-14966893 ] 

Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-7191:
------------------------------------

bq. I created 6,000 collections (3 nodes; 2 x replicas) and re-started the 3 nodes, and all green in 24min.

Very nice! That's an improvement, though still fairly slow.  How quickly did the cluster reach full usability -- at least one replica active on all collections?  That's more important than all-green.

I would hope for full stability in a timeframe well under ten minutes, and under five minutes would be even better.  I don't want to discourage your efforts.

Was this with a single ZK node, or did you have a 3-node ensemble?  It's my understanding that as nodes are added to the ensemble, database updates get slower, because the write must be coordinated on more hosts. A redundant ensemble cannot update the database as fast as a single node, so verification of progress should be done with an ensemble.

> A user on the mailing list with thousands of collections (5000 on 4.10.3, 4000 on 5.0) is having severe problems with getting Solr to restart.
> I tried as hard as I could to duplicate the user setup, but I ran into many problems myself even before I was able to get 4000 collections created on a 5.0 example cloud setup.  Restarting Solr takes a very long time, and it is not very stable once it's up and running.
> This kind of setup is very much pushing the envelope on SolrCloud performance and scalability.  It doesn't help that I'm running both Solr nodes on one machine (I started with 'bin/solr -e cloud') and that ZK is embedded.
