Well, I don't know about the "must" there. I demo RAC using two Vmware virtual machines, each allocated just 192MB of pretend RAM. So I would say that for testing purposes, 192MB is a workable minimum. (I tried it on a virtual machine with just 128MB and it blew up).

But of course Kenneth is correct in saying that 512MB is the minimum recommended by Oracle itself.
