I'd like to have the minimalistic ability to only run what is absolutely needed and trim down processes and services, without compromising the stability of the phone.
Not that I'm aware of. Nokia already put a lot of effort into minimizing what must be running to max battery life. Probably not much more you can cut without sacrificing functionality.

Any tips on gaining RAM and virtual memory would be greatly appreciated!
Widgets, bluetooth and/or wifi enabled when you don't need them, stuff like that, you can cut that down. Run top, htop or Conky to see what's using memory and other resources.
