Where exactly are you hitting the OOM exception? Have you got a stack trace? How much memory are you allocating to the JVM? Have you run a profiler to find out what is using the memory?
If it runs OK for 70K docs then fails, 2 possibilities come to mind: either the 70K + 1 doc is particularly large, or you or lucene (unlikely) are holding on to something that you shouldn't be. -- Ian.
