autocommit commented out -- what is the default?

Hi, if you comment out the block in solrconfig.xml

<!--
   <autoCommit>
      <maxDocs>10000</maxDocs>
      <maxTime>600000</maxTime>
    </autoCommit>
-->

Does this mean that (a) commits never happen automatically or (b) some
default autocommit is applied?

Commented out means they never happen automatically (i.e., no default).
In general commitWithin is a better strategy to use... bulk updates
can use a large value (or no value w/ explicit commit at end) for
better indexing performance, while other updates can use a smaller
value depending on how soon the update needs to be visible.

It means they never happen automatically, added documents wont' be committed until you send a commit to solr.
