Most numbers seem too high to me. KDE and Gnome are definitely below 2GB out of the box and Openbox using >600MB also seems pretty high. A lightweight system like Alpine or Void can be at ~150MB of RAM usage with a window manager.
RAM usage comparisons including the whole OS aren't that interesting imho, run a couple programs and you'll never reach those numbers again until the next reboot. RAM isn't intended to be empty.
