I did a 3.2.1 install and saw my 256MB slice thrash - Just plain install (w/o plugins) and one post. I tried changing the MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT to 32MB/48MB but that also did not work. swap continued unabated. I switched back to 2.9.2 and everything is running happy on same 256MB slice. I can understand that loading more features may require more RAM but base install memory requirements should not change. Also, the fact that PHP settings are being tampered with should be highlighted in bold red on install.
