I found that it is no difference between virtualbox and vmware for RAM usage,
running both of them for a while and memory usage seems to be the same:

VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
363m 324m  13m S   21  8.0 270:46.58 VirtualBox
262m 120m  24m S   11  3.0   1086:23 firefox-bin
288m 254m  23m S    6  6.3 649:57.73 Xorg
365m 300m 289m S    4  7.4   1039:06 vmware-vmx
