For interesting discussions on performance analyisis and memory sizing 
take a look at Sun's "Blueprints" section:

http://www.sun.com/software/solutions/blueprints/browsesubject.html

There is also a PDF on VM Sizing:

http://www.sun.com/solutions/third-party/global/SAS/pdf/vmsizing.pdf

But this is a bit old.

I think the Solaris 8 section of the Sun site also talks about memory 
management and the changes from 7 to 8.
