So you're really using 176M. Nearly 600M is file buffers and cache. A 256MB machine would probably do just as well, unless the application takes a whole lot more memory when it's running hard.

Next is the output from "TOP"
CPU states:  0.0% user,  8.5% system,  0.0% nice, 91.4% idle

Is your app even running at this point?  This machine is basically just
sitting there.
