What is the optimum split of main versus GPU memory?

I read that it's possible to allocate either 128MB, 64MB or 32MB to the Raspberry Pi's video memory.

Given that my primary use case for this machine is educational: I will be running lightweight python scripts, and web-browsing - am I likely to suffer any loss of features by switching to only 32MB of memory?

I do not anticipate wanting to use any 3d or playing any video.
