That is more than enough. Please file a bug(s) and include the logs
from /tmp/*log
Memory usage during install also depends on what the packages being
installed do in their pre/post scripts. selinux is a big example of
this, causing a large spike as it is installed.
SELinux Enhancements. SELinux policy package now includes a pre-built
policy that will only rebuild policy if any customizations have been
made. A sample test run shows 4 times speedup on installing the
package from 48 Seconds to 12 Seconds and max memory usage from 38M to
6M. In addition to that, [1]

Yes. The reason why that work has been done is because everyone kicked
up a stink about anaconda using too much memory, so the anaconda team
looked closer into what was taking up so much memory, found out selinux
policy installation caused quite a significant chunk of it, and told Dan
about it. None of this is news to anyone actually involved in the
relevant development teams =)
this topic has really been done to death on this list and many others.
anaconda team is aware of the memory use issue and is working on fixing
it. this selinux change is one of the fixes.

I would say thank you but the tone I'm getting in the email seems
rather reluctant to try and be as memory efficient as possible, a
little bit like we just did it to stop your whining. I'm sure that's
not the tone you mean and even if so I'm sure you're not talking for
the anaconda team. So regardless.. Thank You all who have beaten this
thing to death and those who won't let it die until it's as efficient
as possible with the hardware given.
