Someone got OpenVAS to compile and run on a Raspberry Pi, which only has 512MB of RAM. https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=57820&p=435319
If I run it in a VM to scan just a couple hosts, I usually only allocate 2GB, but for any sort of enterprise scanning, I would definitely go with 4 to 8. You're just asking for unnecessary headaches otherwise.
