512 MB of RAM is low, even for a board intended as a router/gateway.

MikroTik RouterOS 7, for example, runs perfectly fine on devices with 32 MB of RAM. Not everything has to be bloated with hundreds of megabytes of Javascript running on top of Node.

Also I have a low power pc that's acting as a router and running a few other services on it in my home. It's currently using 180 Mb ram.

Ofc it probably can't run services done in Node, but then running those would defeat the point of a low power pc...
