All depends on whether you want to run both at once. That's the only
factor I can think of.

I think the bare minumum is 12M. If you want to run the GUI, I would
think the minumum would be 16M.
A more workable number is about 48M min, 64 practical. I work with 40M
and I curse myself regularly for not having more.
