I would definitely recommend an upgrade on any Intel machine for the performance benefits alone. Leopard is faster.

I know people are always talking about the performance benefits of more memory, but I haven't seen that quantified. I'm currently running my Macbook in stock configuration (512 MB). It hasn't been painfully slow (in either Windows or OS X mode), but OTOH, it's definitely not snappy. Do you think I'd be better off buying more memory (I can get 2GB for $40), or by installing Leopard? Which gives more bang for the buck?
