Does iPhone Simulator emulate memory ram space of different devices?
I need to test my app on an iPhone 3gs but I haven't the real device. My app contains several functions that requires a large amount of use of the CPU. If I test the app on the simulator by setting the device hardware as "iPhone", does It emulate also the real memory space of the iPhone 3GS? Can I rely in iPhone Simulator?

No. The simulator is unconstrained and has the CPU/Memory of your computer.
