The other factors that influence RAM usage are the amount of players on your server as well as the amount of mods/plugins your server uses.

It is roughly 100MB (0.1GB) per player.

Mod/Plugin RAM usage is dependent on the amount of mods/plugins being used as well as each specific mod/plugin being used.
