Also consider using optimize() once a day if you are doing lots of adds/removes.

SolrClient::commit — Finalizes all add/deletes made to the index
$softCommit = false, bool $waitSearcher = true, bool $expungeDeletes = false): SolrUpdateResponseThis method finalizes all add/deletes made to the index.
softCommitThis will refresh the 'view' of the index in a more performant manner, but without "on-disk" guarantees. (Solr4.0+)
A soft commit is much faster since it only makes index changes visible and does not fsync index files or write a new index descriptor. If the JVM crashes or there is a loss of power, changes that occurred after the last hard commit will be lost. Search collections that have near-real-time requirements (that want index changes to be quickly visible to searches) will want to soft commit often but hard commit less frequently.
waitSearcherblock until a new searcher is opened and registered as the main query searcher, making the changes visible.
expungeDeletesMerge segments with deletes away. (Solr1.4+)
Returns a SolrUpdateResponse object on success or throws an exception on failure.
Throws SolrClientException if the client had failed, or there was a connection issue.
Throws SolrServerException if the Solr Server had failed to process the request.
