I assume you mean ">8GB" ?

As far as I know and researched: no, btrfs is less memory hungry and
was designed to even work fine on small devices like phones or so.

It depends if you use features like deduplication which is very
ressource-intensive ...

Snapshots don't have any size initially.

With filesystems like btrfs and zfs a snapshot is more of a pointer to
a specific status of the whole fs-tree in time and in consequence also
happens instantly. The size of the snapshot ... oh, Rich already
replied as well :-)
