The 2.25 MB per workspaces is a bit small estimate. 
Desktop alone takes 2.25 MB x 2 = 4.5 MB for background (single color) and 
background image. For nine of them it is 40.5 MB when they are empty. Layers 
with icons and taskbar may add another 40.5 MB, depends how this is treated, 
as whole screen or drawable, but even if it takes lesser memory for taskbar 
and icons, 40.5 leaves you with 23.5 MB for all other windows. 

Here we would need somebody that knows how modern graphic adapters work for 
exact estimates.
