Filter cache statistics

Record core-specific filter cache statistics over time.

All statistics reset upon node restart.

This table is configured with gc_grace_seconds 0 to avoid issues with persistent tombstones as rows expire; tombstones are removed during compaction no matter how recently they were created.

Solr exposes a core’s filter cache statistics through its registered index searcher, but the core may have many index searchers over its lifetime. To reflect this, statistics are provided for the currently registered searcher as well as cumulative/lifetime statistics.

If the dseFilterCache hit_ratio declines over time, and this hit_ratio decline corresponds to a higher average latency from the QueryMetrics.getAverageLatency(EXECUTE, null) MBean, consider increasing the size of your filter cache in the search index config.
