Are you also searching on this machine or just indexing? I'll assume your certain that it's SOLR that's eating memory, as in you stop the process and your usage drops way down.
But if you search the user list for memory, you'll see this kind of thing discussed a bunch of times, along with suggestions for tracking it down, whether it's just postponed GCing, etc.....
