Boosting a list of 50000 documents?

Hi all,
I am building a People Search for a social network.
I want to boost my friends and my friends' friends (they are ranked on top).
I have a service to get 50000 friends' friends very fast.
How can I boost these people by using solr? or any ideas to solve the prob.
(Currently I index a list of friends' id in a multiValue field (friendids)
and boosting the friendids field--> my friends are ranked first, but I
cannot index friends' friends because of memory & redundancy)

Br,
