Hi Jermy, Just saw your email.
a) Surprisingly puppetserver-daemon.log is blank.....size zero b) Found the init file /etc/sysconfig/pe-puppetserver. Its showing thing as below. # Modify this if you'd like to change the memory allocation, enable JMX, etc > JAVA_ARGS="-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m" > Upon restart of puppet server service, the edited values will be reset to default 1024(tried setting it to 512MB). c) Upon checking with PS found following.

But I saw some people (mostly youtube demos) are using VM with 1Gigs and working. With current resources in hand, I can allow 4GB for master node.
