I can very easily run that on my laptop.

For 200 concurrent sessions, 100 MB is probably already enough (20MB
would be for sessions if you average 100K per session). But give your
VM 1GB or more and you should be able to handle a much larger peak
(600?) easily

If you don't need EJBs (and who would, I've always steered clear from
them and never regretted it), than don't worry about it. In the
unlikely case you ever do, just address it then by swapping out your
app server. Write your software generically enough so that you don't
depend on a single one.

If you know you need MQ and you want management of it integrated in
your application server, JBoss is worth considering. Also look at
Glassfish while you're at it.
