The problem is that cPanel alone takes almost 128MB to run - and then the user is left complaining about slow responses on the server or potential crashes etc. But that's how marketing is done at some places

Has the experience with this VPS crisis enticed you to the Cloud Hosting world at all? Maybe that's a new thread

A customer couldn't pay me $200/month to put cPanel on anything less than 512mb, seriously! It's just too much of a hassle. I don't focus on small VPS anyways, so it's not generally a problem. I personally recommend at least 1GB for cPanel.. The more the better!

New thread for sure, but I'm throwing around ideas, and have some plans for it still in the works
