I don't use Vagrant (yet?) so I don't care that much, but for those
who have 8GiB, going from 6 to 7 makes a huge difference. Perhaps 6.2
or 6.5 or whatever would be enough?

Also, FWIW my libvirt -based build VM is given 6 GiB, no swap, builds
fine inside a 6GB ramdisk, so perhaps the Vagrant build process could
be optimized a bit?
