Dear Shawn, Thanks for your reply. For now, I did merges in steps with maxSegments param (using HOST:PORT/CORE/update?optimize=truemaxSegments=10). First I merged the 45 segments to 10, and then from 10 to 5. (Merging from 5 to 2 again caused out-of-memory exception.) Now I have a 5-segment index

I have a 28 GB Solr 4.6 index with 45 segments. Optimize failed with an 'out of memory' error. Is optimize really necessary, since I read that lucene is able to handle multiple segments well now?
