We don't have minimum requirements. We run GitLab.com with 3000+ users on a moderate (c1.medium, 1.7 GiB) instance. I think you will do fine with GitLab 5.0 and the 512 Linode. Might have to tune the default parameters a bit to have less processes running.

In order to run GitLab w/o any tweaks you need 1GB Linode.
You can start it on 512 but you need to setup unicorn to use only 1 worker and you need at least 200MB of swap
Is 1GB really requred for personal use? I thought about buying 256/512 VPS exclusively for GitLab, don't you think it will be enough for personal projects?
Maybe someone who has the knowledge can write tutorial about configuring GL to run on average VPS?
A post about tuning GitLab for low memory consumption would be very useful indeed.
Maybe someone will write one someday ;).
And, as I have the chance, I want to thank you and whole GitLab team for a really great work! I'm using GL localy and I'm very pleased with it.
