We have noticed some strange behavior when trying to create_container and
remove_container using the Docker API. For some reason we started getting
ReadTimeout and I'm supposing that our Docker daemon has been restarted (because
of OOM) or in a dumb state.

This commit increases from 750 to 1000 Mb of RAM memory reserved for our
application and OS processes.

The user will get 7000Mb instead of 7200Mb in build-large instances and
in build-default instances they will get 2400 intead of 2700Mb.

This should probably be a constant, or at least have a comment explaining the logic.
