Hello,

I am also fighting with heap exhaustion, however during the indexing step. I was able to minimize, but not fix the problem by setting the thread stack size to 64k with "-Xss64k". The minimum size is os specific, but the VM will tell
you if you set the size too small. You can try it, it may help

This maybe more of a general java q than a solr one, but I'm a bit confused.

We have a largish solr index, about 8M documents, the data dir is about 70G. We're getting about 500K new docs a week, as well as about 1 query/second.

Recently (when we crossed about the 6M threshold) resin has been stopping with the following:

/usr/local/resin/log/stdout.log:[12:08:21.749] [28304] HTTP/1.1 500 Java heap space /usr/local/resin/log/stdout.log:[12:08:21.749] java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

Only a restart of resin will get it going again, and then it'll crash again within 24 hours.

It's a 4GB machine and we run it with args="-J-mx2500m -J-ms2000m" We can't really raise this any higher on the machine.

Are there 'native' memory requirements for solr as a function of index size? Does a 70GB index require some minimum amount of wired RAM? Or is there some mis-configuration w/ resin or solr or my system? I don't really know Java well but it seems strange that the VM can't page RAM out to disk or really do something else beside stopping the server.
