Yes, that's also a good advice you can try (minimal ram requirement for openindiana is 512 MiB but that's for bare metal, I'd guess). Besides, if physical ram is a constraint or is limited at the host side, adding a "/swap" slice -or file for paging- of 2 or even 4 GiB can also help to alleviate the guest performance.
