I've constructed RAM boards using .01uf per memory chip, but I usually use
0.1 uf.  It is usually the number of outputs on a chip that determine the
power glitch during switching.  A single bit ram needs less bypassing than
a ram with 8 data lines.  But 0.1uf should be fine for your purposes.
Keep the leads short!  And keep the caps near the chips.  Everybody sells
0.1uf caps!!!!!!!
