Have you found the base 256MB RAM sufficient (and the most intensive app
you've been using?) Or should I go and bump it to 512. I know I haven't
said what I plan to use it for, so I'll say whatever apps it comes with
(AppleWorks, Safari, iLife, etc) full force and several of them
simultaneously?
I don't think iMacs come with AppleWorks. The list of software at http://www.apple.com/imac/specs.html does not mention it, and every sign on Earth tells that this package is headed towards oblivion anyway.
I'd say 256 MB is too little for your scenario, especially the "several of them simultaneously" part. For me personally even 512 MB is too little right now, but I'm using Photoshop, InDesign and like. But I definitely wouldn't go below half a gig in your case.
