Even if you solve the memory issues you will still be constrained by the NIC.

Most of these SBC's run ethernet over USB, so the performance is still going to be shit.

Probably still good enough to saturate the typical American broadband connection though.
If you want to just make sure that lots of content are accessible eventually that is neglible (and I am constrained by ISP anyways).
I recently selected an ODROID-C2 for a NAS because of its dedicated Ethernet controller. Cute device. My fingers are crossed for the performance test early this week.
