No IT simply means that you are overwxaggerating the RAM usage and its importance a Lot. Most gentoo Users are Used to Compile their own Binaries. A Task which Uses quite some time, horse Power and RAM. Which means that the average computer running gentoo also should have enough Power to Run Skype.
So once more again: RAM usage is no issue, Because most Computers Nowadays have Got much more than needed anyway. And on running instance of firefox probably Uses much more RAM After running some time than Skype does anyway. There are issues, in you are being concerned e.g. About your privacy. But that is a Very Different kind of issue Indeed.
