The question arises of why you want to run a GUI - and indeed your
development environment - on the server at all, unless it's a
terminal-server kind of server?  Far better to let the server be just that
and use a separate development machine to do your actual development.  If
you're running memory-hungry development tools on a server which is already
RAM-challenged then you're inevitably going to compromise its performance
as a server.
