Right, so saw (babune host) should do the trick, I intend to setup a
launchpad.dev there as soon as I get home (next week), it has 12GB and I
can setup a vm with 8GB for the launchpad.dev one (keeping launchpad.dev
in a vm will be easier to maintain for me). 

Your help will be appreciated when I'll start setting up a mini
vcs-imports test lab :-)

The intent is to be able to reproduce failing vcs-imports locally and/or
use trunk versions of whatever is needed without having to deploy on
launchpad.net.
