4GB of RAM is not even close to sufficient. Those 480 MB per client you see is already limited by the shortage of memory. I run 5 clients on a box with 12GB of RAM and memory usage per client is above 650 MB and can get close to 1GB in crowded areas. Add 1-2 GB for your operating system and you end up with a bare minimum of 8 GB.
I would disagree on 8g ram being a minimum. I have run up to 9 windows with 6g (only lagging in major population centers). 6 is probably a more reasonable number.
