I think you'll have to try rather hard to stress that out -- under normal use even windows should do fine :) I have a Celeron 800 MHz with 128 MB RAM, and that already works fine except under rather extreme conditions. I do find however that heavy disk activity slows things down -- eg, X freezes for a second or two if I'm doing "make clean" in a large port with lots of dependencies, or untarring a very large file (like the mozilla source).
