I made more testing with Unison, now on a SheevaPlug (mounting a nfs share served by my PogoPlug).
Seems like Unison is hitting 180~200MB on Arch Linux while on Win7 it's 40~60MB.
It also looks much more stable, but extremely slow (remote nfs share).
Now I'm not sure why Unison crashed on PogoPlug 4 with 512MB swap,
I may need to test it again with swap on sata (and not on usb 3.0) and also separated drives for data and swap,
but my target setup will only use one usb 3.0 hdd.
Another option that I'm considering is to use a separate usb flash drive for swap (maybe a fast usb 3.0) but currently all my flash drives are pretty occupied.
