Recomended RAM for production server. 3Gb overboard?

Hi, I'm looking at buying a new production server, as soon as i mentioned
mysql the Dell salesmen started pushing 3-4Gb of ram, i'm not sure if this
is excessive though.

The OpenBSD server is 2.8Ghz and may have as many as 230 mysql sessions with
14 queries a second, the rest will be sleeping (ftp sessions maintain
connection). The db directory is 80mb total, and the server is currently
handling 14 requests/s with all queries being simple INSERT or SELECT's.
The server also does low levels of firewall/ftp/http-perl/email. The old
server is seems quite happy with 512mb.

Do you guys think 3-4Gb is fair or excessive for this workload? Of course i
wouldn't mind some headspace to grow. Unfortunatly i don't expect 6x
increase any time soon though :)

Thanks :)
Brad.
