Do you have some numbers about the resource usage that you can share? 4GB minimum memory (16G recommended) is necessarily a heavy requirement given the wide variety of things the server does. CockroachDB may be similar to this, and my servers consume between 1-2GB memory usually.

This is true. Generally, you need at least 3 nodes for the smallest Couchbase cluster. At least that was true a couple of years ago.
Unfortunately couchbase-server consumes lot of resource on the backend and it's heavy, which brings an entry of barrier from a start up point of view.
