I currently have 443868 KB total (by the output of "free -k") with my config:

You can compare it with yours and see what else you need to disable.
AFAIK it is certainly possible to get full 512MB by disabling some more things,
but I still didn't bother to investigate that, since 443868 KB is more than
enough for my uses.
