Beyond the suggestions already made, i would add:
a) being really aggressive about stop words can help keep the index size
down, which can help reduce the amount of memory needed to scan the term
lists
b) faceting w/o any caching is likelye going to be too slow to be
acceptible.
c) don't sor

The index size depends just as much on the size of the do
Hi,
Beware that Solr4.0 branch has multiple RAM conserving optimizations which may
cause your index to take considerably less space, so try it out.
Also, of course, prune your schema to turn off everything you don't need, and
also your OS to stop services you don't use.
Consider disallowing cert
Well, this answer isn't much more satisfactory than "get more memory",
but about all I can say is "try it and see".
Sure, make your caches very small and monitor memory and test it out.
You'll get a sense of how fast (or slow) the queries are pretty quickly. Or
you can get a ballpark estimate of
or actually disabling caching as mentioned here:
