I used a Minolta Scan Dual (2438 dpi) with 160mb of RAM and that was 
adequate even when I had a couple of adjustment layers.  A couple of weeks 
ago I replaced that scanner with a Minolta Scan Elite (2820 dpi) and 
discovered that with two adjustment layers I would sometimes get some 
swapping, depending on what operation I was trying.  I have upgraded to 
256mb and it seems to be much better.  I would say that for 2700-2820 dpi 
you would want 256mb as a minimum.
