We already do warnings for ulimits, so memory seems reasonable. Along the same

Feel free to, raise a JIRA, but I won’t have any time to work on it….
Done.

I think that for typical server systems, starting with a 512MB heap is a
little bit nuts.
I think I know why such a low number was chosen. Without a much smarter
startup, a super low default is the only way to ensure that Solr will
start on virtually any system that somebody tries it on, like the small
AWS servers.
Thanks,
