Hi Chak
Rather than comparing the overall size of your index to the RAM available
for the OS disk cache, you might want to look at particular files. For
example if you allow phrase queries, than the size of the *prx files is
relevant, if you don't, you can look at the size of your *frq files. Y

There are certainly a number of widely varying opinions on the use of RAM
directory.
Basically, though, if you need the index to be persistent at some point
(i.e. saved across reboots, crashes etc.),
you'll need to write to a disk, so RAM directory becomes somewhat
superfluous in this case.

Hey Peter,
Thanks for your reply.
My question was mainly about the fact there seems to be two different
aspects to the solr RAM usage: in-process and out-process.
By that I mean, yes i know the many different parameters/caches to do with
solr in-process memory usage and related culprits, however
