Yes, we're running the Gaia UI tests with the 319MB configuration and
we have various tests that are failing (intermittently) and disabled
because they just don't work with 319MB:
1172167 [Flame][Cards View] Cards view loses the list of recently opened apps
1176502 Failure in test_homescreen_column_layout.py on the Flame
device, because Settings app gets killed
1178859 test_browser_bookmark.py: "IOError: Connection to Marionette
server is lost."
1181344 [Window Management] Settings will be a blank white screen when
returning from the "Built-in Keyboard" settings
1188080 test_rocketbar_offline_behavior.py: "NoSuchWindowException: None"
1189262 Failure in test_browser_share_link.py using Flame 319MB
1204280 [Flame] Intermittent failure in test_sms_contact.py in
tap_send_sms using Flame 319MB
1188603 [Settings][Ringtones] Share activity closes when attempting to
add custom ringtone

I think these bugs need to be fixed, because they stand for lost
functionality in those low memory conditions.

All the bugs currently out there, regarding supporting 319MB memory
configuration:
