I run Trisquel with 1 GB of RAM in the desktop from 2005 using E17 and it's quite snappy. On the netbook I also have 1 GB with Parabola and loading software takes a few seconds (e.g. 10 seconds to load Evolution or Iceape and longer to load bitcoin-qt), but the bottleneck is the Atom processor (and lack of a solid state drive) and not the amount of RAM.
