Although there have been some replies on this thread, none of them have
really yet directly answered your question.  When setting up a venti
server, the size of the Bloom filter has a big impact on memory usage
and performance.  Details about computing Bloom filter size can be found
in the docs.  You could set up venti on a machine with very little
memory if you're happy with it constantly going out to check the index.
