OP, I officially love you. You've answered a question I've been looking for for ages.

Well so much for mounting them in the racks, no side rails... Going to have to stack them for now, and get them functional to prove to administration that they can be a revenue stream before I can buy rails kits for then.

Lol

Compared to most other process and RAM intensive tasks, I don't think it's taking up that much. On my own VPS, running Craftbukkit-git with SpoutPlugin, it runs perfectly fine with just about 256MB virtualized, in an ArchLinux virtual machine with 512MB RAM (it's also running a few experiments of my own written in NodeJS and Meteor).
I've had loads of other services require AT LEAST 512MB of RAM, while this seems to be enough for all of my stuff.

My master nameserver runs bind9 (master), ntpd, fail2ban, rsyslog and cron, a irssi session in tmux, and odentd. It uses 92 MB of RAM.
One of my nameservers runs bind9 (slave), ntpd, fail2ban, rsyslog and cron and uses 19 MB of RAM.
Another server I have runs apache2, nginx, passenger, a ruby application, ntpd, mysqld, cron and rsyslog, exim4, a redis server and bugzilla (a perl app). It uses 287 MB of RAM.
I'm inclined to agree with PvtCupcakes here.

Really? What Linux system are you using? I'm not very efficient, as I'm using a standard Arch Linux installation without GUI.

I'm using Debian 6.0.5 64-bit. The numbers for the 287MB server are a bit low, the server will bump up to 350/400 when the 2-4 apps start to spin up but that's about as far as it will go.

Oh, so those numbers are on idle? Oh, I thought you meant during load. But I don't know Debian used that little, thats pretty cool.
After checking it out, I realize that my server does use a lot less than I had measured (I was counting the virtualization usage, instead of reading the usage directly from an SSH session using htop), but still not as low as yours. I should probably look into getting a server kernel too. Thanks for the info!

If your vps panel includes hard drive caching then yeah you have to discard that. You can use 'free' to get the numbers you need. My secondary dns and primary dns don't really rise up in memory, but like I mentioned in my last post, the app server does.
Can't believe I actually first take a deeper look at this thread now.
This is pure awesomeness!
