I'm running 9.04 on and old P3 500 with 256MB of RAM: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 250672 208192 42480 0 21280 132880 -/+ buffers/cache: 54032 196640 Swap: 1020088 1184 1018904 It's not doing much (a home office gateway running DHCP, Bind, Postfix, PPPoE, etc), but has no memory problems at all (It's not of course running X).
