I guess that depends. I remember having a cheap or free trial VPS for a
month with just 512 MB. Git ran out of RAM trying to check out the Linux
kernel. Likewise Netbeans was crashing with memory issues when I tried
to do some little Java programming for a course.
Didn't try to setup paging, just let it go.
