Thanks for this research! Their most practical suggestion is to "trim
extension", which we did.

By the way, we have regular QA tests to check that Tails is usable with
2GB of RAM. While I'm all for saving resources, I don't think it's
realistic to bring down the requirement to 1GB. The best we can do is to
try hard to not bump the requirement to 3GB.
