I can't tell you much about the CVS builds as I tend to stay away from those for the same reasons you are having problems, but I can tell you that 48 MB of ram is probably going to be a problem, I had a dell laptop with 96MB running scans agains 7 hosts, that thing was so slow it took like 24 hours to do the scan. even on a IBM server with 256MB running Xwindows and nessus it took 12 hours to scan 7 hosts using the CLI nessus.
