For a windows Comparison, which really isn't very good. On an Athlon 2200 with 1 gig of ram on Windows 2k3 Server Enterprise Edition I was booting 30 zones with no prob. I honestly don't remember the ram usage as it's been a while. But it in no way lagged players or the server that I could tell. I also never had over 14 people on at once. But like I said it never ran out of ram booting the zones.
If you are going to be running a server on Windows I would highly recommend you strip a windows 2003 install down as much as possible and use it. It uses about 200 less ram than Windows xp, and I don't believe I ever had a crash on it. Although it was relatively clean. All I had on it was my compiler prog and the eqemu server.
