For a small app on a box running Linux, _maybe_. Any other case? That hasn't been true for years.
The large Rails app I work on can eat up 500mb RAM easily. The webpack dev server I'm running to compile the Angular frontend for said Rails app is taking another 500mb. Visual Studio Code (easily the best TypeScript editor) is using over a gig of RAM all by itself.
