Thanks again for your kind input!

I followed Tim's advice and tried to use MMapDirectory. Then I get
outofmemory on solr startup (tried giving only 8G, 4G to JVM)

I guess this truely indicates that there arent sufficient memory for such a
huge index. 

On another thread I posted days before, regarding splitting index for
solrcloud, the answer I got was that it is not possible to split an existing
index into a solrcloud configuration. 

I will try re-indexing with solrcloud instead...

thanks
