NX does run an X session for each user, and when you disconnect, the
session remains.
I suppose it would be nice if it could "suspend to disk" the session
in between connections.
Oh wait a minute, that is what you can do with virtual machines.
If you combine the Linux KVM feature with the KSM feature, you should
be able to save a lot of memory.
