I used Solr for the previous generation of FreshBSD[0], and migrated to ElasticSearch and Tire over a year ago and haven't looked back. The docs for both ElasticSearch and Tire leave something to be desired, but it's still so much nicer to use and a lot faster out of the box, at least for my modest needs.

Solr's docs also leave a lot to be desired. The wikis are a mess and knowing what is still relevant (e.g. not deprecated) is frequently a crap shoot.
It'd be great if their docs had versioning (like the Apache HTTP Server Project), but I suspect that isn't on anyone's roadmap.
