Whilst the application layer needs a reasonable amount of memory, the majority of the workload is placed on the storage layers, which as a semantic web application means the triple store. As VIVO aims to be agnostic to the triple store, the precise requirements will depend on your choice of triple store. However, starting from the VIVO 1.12, the default configuration is to use Jena TDB, while in the previous versions it was SDB backed by MySQLVIVO can be optionally configured to use MySQL as a backing store for Jena SDB. TDB is another triple store from the Jena project, but TDB keeps its data in directory of flat files, while SDB uses a relational database.
