You would need to think of the JVM memory of a task (storm bolt in this case). 
For various practical reasons a task bolt heap size will typically be in the 
range of 2-8G, that will be shared by multiple instances/threads of a bolt in 
that JVM . Having more memory on a host, you would probably try to run more 
tasks per node than just using large memory for one task.
So I would say if system can run reliably with 2-4 Gs of heap, it has higher 
chances of running in most environments including dev, test etc where users may 
have limited resources.
