Of course, this largely depends on what you are using the workstation for and how memory hoggish the apps are. Another thing you can look at is swapd. It generates swap files as needed. I use it on my machines since I rarely go over my physical ram, but I want swap space available just in case I do. My laptop has 256M of RAM, but only a 10G hard drive, so I don't really want to waste any hard drive space to a largely unused swap partition.
