I'm going to venture an answer that you might consider boring, but if
your configuration is "too big", then it's quite easy to approximate how
much memory you need by graphing the server's actual cache usage.

the longer you've been graphing for, the better the estimate. plan to
give a little more memory than the maximum consumption and, although not
perfect, it "should" be good enough.
