$ du -sh *NOM*
234M    NB_60_NOM.tar.gz

The program itself is big, you need to install ICS, setup 
tunnel/authentication/brokering etc..  I remember the patches were 
50-250MB as well, which I thought was crazy.  I had set this up 4-5 months 
ago for test purposes and I do not recall the exact amount of memory; 
however, I do remember there were a lot of processes in use, the ICS 
stuff, a number of webserver-like applications for NOM, etc..

Perhaps someone on the list who is -currently- using NOM can shed some 
light on this?

Thanks,

Justin.
