On the performace wiki page it mentions a test box with 16GB ram. Did anything special need to be done to use that much ram (with the OS or java)? Would Solr on a system with Linux x86_64 and Tomcat be able to use that much ram? (sorry, I don't know Java so I don't know if there are any limitations there).
Yep, works fine.... We don't use the full 16GB for the java heap though because: - you want to leave RAM for the OS cache of the index files - bigger heaps = longer gc pauses (at least with Java5). -Yonik
