Can anyone advise techniques for limiting the size of the RAM buffers to begin with? As the index grows, I shouldn't have to keep increasing the heap. We have a high-ingest, low-query-rate environment and I'm not as much concerned with the query-time caches as I am with the segment core readers/SolrIndexSearchers themselves.
