I designed the installation interface for Digital UNIX (aka tru64UNIX) and originally (back in '94) it could be installed on a 24mb system. This is for a full blown, mature enterprise UNIX. We used Xwindows primitives to make the installation process that small.
Now, everyone is using Java and web services (like Tomcat and Apache) to render their interfaces, and the memory consumption of those processes are enormous (I am looking at my Alphastation's process monitor, and Tomcat has a 61MB real set size, and a 122MB virtual set size!!!!).
The OS is essentially stealing your memory, memory you can use to run applications. It is a trend that becomes more apparent every time a new version comes out.
