My box runs Debian Sarge with xen 2.0.7, LVM and 6 guest domains and seems
to be happy with just 64M.  Running top reveals that it is using zero swap
and still has 30MB of free ram.
However, my host domain is purely used for hosting xen and nothing else.

I used to run my dom0s with 128MB (also Debian Sarge and Xen 2.0.7), but I am still using snapshots with LVM and lvm told me that memory is too low until I reserved 256 MB for dom0.
