Of those Matrix Synapse would be the heaviest. Consider using Dendrite before you get locked into the bad Matrix software.
So true, every few months I get the urge to ditch Synapse, but then I think about how much of a hassle it would be to migrate and happily pay a few bucks more for the extra RAM on the VPS. Don't be me, use Dendrite right from the start.
You could also check out Conduit, it's still in beta but very lightweight.
