Great if this forces Java upgrades.

Using Solr with Java 8 is still quite common.

The newer GC options should have already forced people to upgrade. A use case like search churns through memory.

Maybe just what I've seen but Solr usually has users sticking with older versions of Java.

From Solr 8 on you need a Java 11 runtime.

Solr 9, for Solr 8, Java 8 is still used.

Which is a pain, many products that use Solr as dependency like Sitecore, still lag behind in Solr versions.

While it mostly works with more recent versions, there is no support if issues cannot be replicated on officially supported versions.
