I would like to see Phabricator move to a virtual owed cluster, or even a bare metal cluster. However, I would not include Phabricator in a list of "not-so-resource-consuming services."
Phabricator definitely uses significant amount of resources. It's running on a 12 core server with 64gb ram and 500gb raid storage, currently. That hardware is a little bit more than required but not by very large margin. I've recently requested a second machine to be used for a backup Phabricator instance, so that we can avoid long downtimes during maintenance or hardware failure. That request is still being discussed at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T131775 Phabricator is gaining improved high-availability support thanks to recent work upstream, so it might be possible to have dual-master phabricator nodes in the near future. See https://secure.phabricator.com/T10751 for upstream progress.
