Is that ever since 1.8 made the whole game engine vastly less efficient? The game used to run with 256MB.

These are system requirements - not how much the game actually uses.

There's modpacks, e.g. fabulously optimized. It makes mc playable but 256MiB basically gets you to the Java runtime nowadays.

Less efficient but faster, which is a fun combination. At least they seem to have improved FPS.
