The wiki installation guide sets a Gig of RAM as requirement, so a Value
in the range of 512-768M would be appropriate in my opinion. Anyone
wanting to run the client on a less powerful PC should know how to
reduce that value via config file.

tah seems not to have stopped working for me? However I have little clue
about Windows specifics of the client since I run and develop t at h on
Linux only.
