Hi Jim, I'd venture to guess your Solr core is using MMapDirectory and if so, then the physical memory value is correct and nothing to worry about. The index is loaded into virtual memory using mem mapped I/O.
The file descriptor count looks fine too, but when using MMapDirectory make sure your OS reports unlimited for ulimit -v and ulimit -m (not too sure what -m is but -v is virtual memory). You'll probably want to give a bit more RAM if you can spare it to your JVM (but not too much more) esp. if you do lots of custom sorting.
