\description{
This package has support for all the search endpoints, as well as a suite
of functions for managing a Solr database, including adding and deleting
documents.
}
\section{Important search functions}{


\itemize{
\item \code{\link{solr_search}} - General search, only returns documents
\item \code{\link{solr_all}} - General search, including all non-documents
in addition to documents: facets, highlights, groups, mlt, stats.
\item \code{\link{solr_facet}} - Faceting only (w/o general search)
\item \code{\link{solr_highlight}} - Highlighting only (w/o general search)
\item \code{\link{solr_mlt}} - More like this (w/o general search)
\item \code{\link{solr_group}} - Group search (w/o general search)
\item \code{\link{solr_stats}} - Stats search (w/o general search)
}
}

\section{Performance}{


\code{v0.2} and above of this package will have \code{wt=csv} as the default.
This  should give significant performance improvement over the previous
default of \code{wt=json}, which pulled down json, parsed to an R list,
then to a data.frame. With \code{wt=csv}, we pull down csv, and read that
in directly to a data.frame.

The http library we use, \pkg{crul}, sets gzip compression header by
default. As long as compression is used server side, you're good to go on
compression, which should be a good peformance boost. See
\url{https://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrPerformanceFactors#Query_Response_Compression}
for notes on how to enable compression.

There are other notes about Solr performance at
\url{https://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrPerformanceFactors} that can be
used server side/in your Solr config, but aren't things to tune here in
this R client.

Let us know if there's any further performance improvements we can make.
