I don't think one shoe fits all -- what if I have ganglia running on a small cluster and/or I have limited RAM -- and if you want this setup automatically, what % of RAM should you use? Perhaps we can brainstorm for ideas here and see what other folks think -- perhaps this just needs to be better documented (i.e. in the official wiki?)
