With that amount of RAM I wouldn't even bother with swap.
The worst bloat I have is JBuilder, that one requires 128Mb.
There is no rule that says that you _must_ have swap - my machine has 190Mb swap and 128Mb RAM, it will run out of swap space long before you even fill up half your memory.
But as mentioned by the others, it really depends on what you use it for, each user has requirements, two users need (sometimes more than) twice as much resources as one, ... and so on ...

vzcalc
vzcalc(8) Containers vzcalc(8)
NAME
vzcalc - calculate resource usage of a container
SYNOPSIS
vzcalc [-v] CTID
DESCRIPTION
This utility displays the share of the host system resources a particular container is using. If the container is running, the current
usage is displayed. High utilization values (>100%) mean the system is overloaded (or the container has an invalid configuration).
Current
Shows the amount of the resources consumed by the container at a given time.
Promised
Shows the resources soft limit values "promised" for a given container.
Max Shows the resources hard limit values "promised" for a given container.
If the -v option is specified, the following additional information is also displayed:
Low Mem
The part of memory residing at lower addresses and directly accessed by the kernel (only makes sense for 32-bit architectures).
Total RAM
Total memory.
Mem+Swap
Amount of memory available for applications (both RAM and swap space).
Alloc Mem
Standard memory allocations made for applications in a container. This is a more "virtual" system resource than RAM or RAM and
swap.
Num. Proc
Number of processes.
OPTIONS
-v Display additional information.
EXIT STATUS
Normally, the exit status is 0. On error, the exit status is 1.
