I have a PIII-750 monitoring (2) DS3's using netflow and a mirrored 100Mb Ethernet link at about 40% util. nTop CPU during peak loads is < 50%. Netflow drastically reduces the CPU required for nTop.
Memory depends on the number of hosts you track. I'd say 512MB would be good to start. nTop for me uses about 370MB total - 250MB resident with about 3,000 internal hosts and at least that many external / internet hosts.

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
