I think the range is so that when Joe who puts taroon on his 64 mb
webserver and things dont work exactly correctly, support can have a
quick checklist of items on fixing it. 

'Sir we know you can run it in 64MB, but it is only tested in 256 mb or
more memory. Please bring the machine to the minimum levels, and see if
the problem still occurs.'

While many hackers will chafe at having to go large on things... the
number of corporate webserver problems that go away by adding enough
memory (oh wow Jakarta now works) is startling.
