just enough so it doesn't swap, then add 300K perhaps and two small (max 100k) virtual swapdisks and a larger 'real' swapdisk.
In your case I would start with 2GB and see how it works.

The sizing parameters for the guests (Oracle DB, and WebLogic) are being sent to us based on intel platform sizing. How do some of you handle the sizing conversion from Intel to IFL's? Are there some rules of thumb, we should know about? Our environment: IBM z10-BC (QA and Dev) and z10-EC (Prod) running z/VM 5.4 and RHEL 5.3.
