Strange Hybris 6.3 Commerce B2C Accelerator Build Error on Windows 10
A month ago, a client asked me to build Hybris 6.3 on his Windows 10 laptop to demo the new 6.3 functionality. Since this was a local machine, I decided to install Hybris using the B2C Acclerator.

Solr Configuration: Increase Number of Indexer Threads for Better Performance
