It's written in python, which takes about about 2m-5m just to get out of bed with nothing loaded or running. (I don't consider that a lot BTW, not a ding on python.)
There's about 200K of source code, but basically all the overhead is the python runtime.
(The memory usage of python doing nothing varied on different machines, but was always virtually identical to the usage of fail2ban.)
Also, the virt usage is mostly large memory mapped logfiles, not actual swap usage.
