I've a customer running a development environment of two OraApps 11.5.8
database instances and one more database instance (for web development under
WebLogic), all on a Sun V100.

Yes, that is a rack-mountable Solaris machine of 1U rack height with a
maximum configuration of one (1) UltraSPARC-III CPU, 1.0 Gb of RAM, and
three 36-Gb HDD.  Main storage is a NAS (since the machine doesn't
accommodate SCSI or FC adapters).

Foolishly underconfigured, yes.  Impossible or difficult, no.
