I think if you did that it would be a bad marketing move to remove burst RAM. This is what everyone else is doing:

Ok so we are changing the way memory is handled within vps’s as things have changed a bit since we set them up.
We are switching to “SLM” memory management so that our VPS’s act more like a real server. Before they operated on the “UBC” system which had a number of barriers and quite often needed modification for different customers.
So from now on if we wish to setup a VPS with 256MB of RAM, bursting to 512MB we would run this command on the hardware node:
# vzctl set 101 –slmmemorylimit 256M:512M
(limits average memory usage to 256 megabytes, allows using up to 512M).
where 101 is the unique ID for the VPS

If you don't allow bursting then its going to create all sorts of problems when people want to run an install, as services will shutdown if a VPS is running close to its "average" limit.
As a customer, I would like to see
slmmemorylimit 384M:1024M applied to my VPS to comply with what I have paid for.
