I'm actually officially going to suggest that if you have less than 16MB
RAM on your system, you're probably better off running 2.0.x than 2.2.
Linux 1.0 used to run in 2MB (not well, but it ran), 1.2 already pretty
much required 4MB, 2.2 will pretty much require 8MB and 16MB preferred.
Don't get me wrong - I'll make sure it works on an 8MB machine, but I
won't consider it a showstopper if it is noticeably slower than 2.0.x on
such a machine.
