How much RAM would be recommended for cube building?

I was browsing when i came across my own. I still had the same query though.
I have been using 4GB until recently, but, might be provided with a 2 GB. Does it make a huge difference given everything is the same? Thanks!!

I would watch your memory usage during a cube build to see how much the system is using. If it's always using all the memory available and page faulting, you might want to consider uping your memory.

From my experience, you are more likely to be maxing out your memory on the database machine rather than the build machine. I woud check there as well.
