How Much Ram does continual activation of WSA use

WSA use of RAM ???

How much RAM does continual use of Windows Subsystem for Android use? Is the amount of RAM affected by the number of Android apps that I might want to keep open? I am deciding between 16 and 32 gb RAM and want to have adequate memory to run WSA in background with such apps as:

Smartthings
Raccio
Blink
Tractive GPS
American Standard Thermostats

This is partially an effort to "future proof" for three years the use of WSA.

I will probably need to "side load" these because they are not--of course-- in Amazon Store and I don't have enough confidence to replace the WSA kernel with "fix" from Github to allow Google Play Store.

Can anyone tell me how much RAM would be used with a half-dozen or so Android Apps always open?

Thanks for any suggestions.
