Absolutely not true. Aeolus takes around 120 MB of which 40 MB are shared (mostly X11). My main machine at home has just 512 MB. I've used it to mix 24-track Ardour sessions, it also runs Aeolus and Linuxsampler (and also both together) without any problem. Of course if you use a bloated desktop that probably wouldn't work.
