Just throwing this out there, have you tried the unifiedHighlighter with termVectors/character offsets? The default configuration re-analyzes the text of the result-set which can be cpu-bound for large docs/fields. But there are ways to get around this by storing the character offsets and termVectors in the index, which can be a good tradeoff in many situations, i.e. "Postings" https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/query-guide/highlighting.html#:~:text=over%20highlighting%20performance.-,Postings,-%3A%20Supported%20by%20the
I know this doesn't answer your question but just wanted to mention an alternative solution to relying on time-outs/partial-results, which may be frustrating for other reasons.
