  The new Java-based replication feature is implemented as a !RequestHandler. Configuring replication is therefore similar to any normal !RequestHandler.

   * If your commits are very frequent and network is particularly slow, you can tweak an extra attribute {{{<str name="commitReserveDuration">00:00:10</str>}}}. This is roughly the time taken to download 5MB from master to slave. Default is 10 secs.
   * If you are using '''startup''' option for ''replicateAfter'', it is necessary to have a '''commit'''/'''optimize''' entry also, if you want to trigger replication on future commits/optimizes. If only the '''startup''' option is given, replication will not be triggered on subsequent commits/optimizes after it is done for the first time at the start.

+ == Setting up a Repeater ==
  A master may be able to serve only so many slaves without affecting performance. Some organizations have deployed slave servers across multiple data centers. If each slave downloads the index from a remote data center, the resulting download may consume too much network bandwidth. To avoid performance degradation in cases like this, you can configure one or more slaves as repeaters.  A repeater is simply a node that acts as both a master and a slave.
   * To configure a server as a repeater, both the master and slave configuration lists need to be present inside the !ReplicationHandler requestHandler in the solrconfig.xml file.
   * Be sure to have replicateAfter 'commit' setup on repeater even if replicateAfter is set to optimize on the main master. This is because on a repeater (or any slave), only a commit is called after index is downloaded. Optimize is never called on slaves.
