Could you point me to info on this? I know that OpenBSD has chroot
and a few other features like systrace, but I haven't seen anything
comparable to FreeBSD's full jails.

This is a nice plus. FreeBSD (without ZFS) can do this, as can at
least Debian as I have several boxes with 2GB of RAM or less. Though
I'd note that OpenBSD can run remarkably comfortably in 256MB of RAM
which is a lot harder for other OSes to do.

even with X, it's pretty svelte. I just installed a fresh OpenBSD
with X but no additional packages yet, and the entire install clocks
in at under 570MB. Foregoing X saves you about 200MB.
