But even we used a single index, we were running out of memory. What do you mean by "active"? No queries on the masters. Only one index is being processed/optimized.
Also, if I may add to my same question, how can I find the amount of memory that an index would use, theoretically? i.e.: Is there a formulae etc?

Memory consumption will be certainly more.
