There's also a few other choices that have JDBC drivers/wrappers

Firebird http://firebird.sourceforge.net/
SQLite http://www.sqlite.org/

And of course the "lite" version of MS-SQL (MSDE 2000 or SQL Server
Express 2005). Other choices include MS Access, text files using the
appropriate driver.

It all depends on what you mean by "low resource" -- a 1GB db is ~1GB
db in every database. I personally think MySQL is the best balance of
weight to performance for many typical web-related applications, but
for something *really* simple (like maybe a configuration database for
an application), SQLlite is a great choice, as is Firebird.
