Hello, guys !
Long time no seen. I have a question about Linux web servers. I guess it is a more general question, but in my case it is a Linux web server. I want to know how much RAM memory should I put on my servers. Do you have some formula or guidelines on how should I calculate the amount of RAM memory needed on a web server ?
To give you an example, I have this machine:

It has 2GB RAM. Is it enough for it's CPU's ? Or should I add some extra RAM ?
The machine has on it a web server, ftp server, mysql server and named server.
Any advices are welcomed
