Description

Can we make solrj always send post queries (or have it be an init-able option)?

Jetty has some "problems" (in quotes because I don't know if it's really a problem) with long queries over GET:

Tiny patch attached that changes it and doesn't cause an exception on long queries in Jetty w/ solrj.
