When you make a pirate of airships themed server, where everybody is playing with moving ships, this might be true. If it's occasional, I think nobody will notice.

On hARDA, nobody ever complained about lags coming from ships usage. Then we use 16 GB for Minecraft on a powerful server (this kind).

3 GB is a bit low but it should work. Of course, it's your server owner call to decide if he wants to install this or not. I suggest telling him to install it and keep the rights to move ships for him only, at first. He will then be able to see for himself if this causes lags or not on his server.

I made some explanations for Movecraft configuration on the Configuring third-party software for the mod wiki page.

In order to lower the risk of lag, it is also possible to restrain the maximum number of blocks that can be used to make a ship (I use 3 ship classes: < 1.000 blocks, < 10.000 blocks and < 100.000 blocks).
