What are the Memory requirements? If they are 64MB, would it be possible to make them 63MB? M$ under reports system memory by 1MB.

Memory requirements in the BURP project vary much more than in for instance the SETI@home project.
Some renders take 5MB, some take 500MB (just to point out the extremes)...

I haven't quite decided on what to set as the minimum amount of system memory. Possibly BURP will be focussing on the high-range systems (older boxes will make renders take longer). However, I haven't collected any statistics in this area yet.
