In addition to what Hermann said (20g/l is what I was taught to be the average starting concentration for crystallisation experiment, so it's not particularly high) I would like to add that, provided you have enough material, you can estimate the solubility of your protein by concentrating it in a concentrator and plotting the concentration over time without resuspending the supernatant. That's only a rough estimate but it's a starting point.
