It runs with 128MB of RAM and it almost never swaps even then. The site
has a pretty limited load, and almost all content is generated using
mod-include in apache, not php or anything. Though I'm rewriting the
entire site soon to make it more maintainable.

I had to battle the boss just to get a new duron to put out there
instead of the old dual pentium pro 200 with reliability issues. I don't
see myself getting the cash for 1G of RAM we dont' absolutely need
anytime soon, alas.
