Lionel,

Here's a line from our RTM showing one of our busiest file servers, 
supporting around 650 users: 

 <USERID> %CPU %CP %EM ISEC PAG  WSS  RES   UR PGES SHARE VMSIZE 
TYP,CHR,STAT
 LXFS001   1.7 .45 1.2  154 .90  53K  53K   .0  15K   400   256M 
VUS,DSC,DISP

You can see that it's quite happy with 256M, and a working set size of 
53K pages.
