Unless something changed this is slightly risky. It can lead to very large
transaction logs and very long playback of the tx log on startup. If Solr
goes down during indexing to something like an OOM, it could take a very
long time for it to restart, likely leading to people restarting it because
they think it's stuck... and then it has to start at the beginning
again...  (Ref:

... Infrequent commits might be better than none (but definitely you do not
want  not frequent commits, certainly not after every batch, or even worse
after every doc).
