My metadata.db is 43meg on a library of 9300 books on my finished library and 45megs on my working library. It's not uncommon for calibre to be operating in the 325meg range, but somehow Firefox always seems to use just a little more ram.
so 43+45 + say 100 base, accounts for most of your initial footprint.

and 2.5 + 100 base accounts for most of mine

I have to admit that I only joined the thread out of curiosity - I have no real issue with how much RAM it wants to reserve on this PC , but If I were trying to manage a library like yours on a 1Gb netbook then I could have issues.
