I think my typical server setup idles at 30~40mb of ram before I add services.

At the moment with nginx (with passenger, no active rails processes), cloudkick-agent, a fat irssi and some php-fastcgi workers I'm only using 122mb of ram. I don't know how much ram you really have to shave off.

More or less my point. the ~150 additional megabytes was if they were deploying with Ubuntu + some kind of java server management software (worst case scenario for a base deployment template?)
