That depends on what you run on dom0 and what your distro is.
Usually I give it 500MB on RHEL5.3 dom0 without GUI. This would give
enough room for things like "yum update".

If you're low on resource try 250MB first, do what you usually do
(start domUs, apt-get update, or whatever) and look at memory usage
(htop is nice). If swap usage is 0 then its probably enough.

Fajar
