Debian has way less overhead out of the box so in theory it should save a company a decent amount of money. I’m trying to calculate actual numbers and I’m curious if any of you have done any similar calculation.

    Debian uses like 200MBs of ram for a basic fresh install. That’s negligible.

    Unless you’re deploying 500 virtual machines on a single server, that all run a single simple basic task the base ram usage of the OS shouldn’t even be a factor.
