Since you mentioned it, and I wasn't aware that there was a standalone
archiva, I decided to check it out. Firing it up with no config, just
adding an admin user uses up ~130MB of ram. A standalone default Nexus
config is using only ~28. Artifactory is using about ~50mb. On a server
this might not be important, but on a developer machine that could be
significant. In fact I never thought much about it, but we are running
the public nexus instance[1] that is hosting the proxy and repositories
for our two CI systems and the M2eclipse build, with the JDK default of
64mb of ram.

Well, for the record, this is the same with a default Archiva
installation. Each to their own :)
