If you're under an x86_64 machine (AMD opteron, for instance), you may
be able to set your JVM heap this large. But if you have 6GB RAM, you
might try keeping your JVM small (under 1GB), and letting linux's
filesystem cache do the work. Lucene searches are often CPU-bound

Is it possible to use a RAMDirectory to load a 5 GB index into RAM on Linux?
I have access to a server with 6 GB of RAM and will try it next week but
