This is nice, I used Solr for a while and it worked well but I hated the Java underneath it, and some aspects of it seemed needlessly slow. But, I think this is still a 20th century style of search engine and we need more modern approaches. Especially, those of us with small datasets compared to internet search behemoths can probably take an effiency hit to get more useful results.

because it wouldn't let their power level reach 9000
