Ah ok, you're talking about the CRAWLER, I was under the impression we 
are talking INDEX QUEUE :)

Honestly I don't know a lot (anything) about the crawler. Crawler 
support was provided by AOE media / Tolleiv Nietsch AFAIR.

But the way you describe it, I'd say it's correct, one per language.

Yes, commit and optimize tasks need to be configured per core / index.
You don't necessarily need a commit task though. The solrconfig.xml 
shipping with the extension triggers a commit every one hour or 100 
documents, depending on what happens first. The commit task is useful 
during development of course to manually trigger a commit.


HTH, all the best
