You assign as much PHYSICAL RAM as you want to your VM. Your limit is your total PHYSICAL RAM. If you have a 4 GB of RAM like me, and you're only planning to use only ONE VM, then you can give it 1 GB and it will be even smoother. VMware has plenty of options, just be sure to know what you're doing. I barely made a draft here. If people needs a full guide, I can do it. So far, no one asked for it.
Then again, if you're using your VM for MS, 512 MB of PHYSICAL RAM is enough for a mule. You're not actually gonna use it for playing and such so, you don't need 500 fps on a mule, do you?
