I had a small Ruby (Sinatra) website running on a Linux vm on a spare Android phone (Sony Xperia X Compact). Turns out the CPU is quite capable. It actually compiles Nginx faster than a low end Google Cloud vm.

It sounds nothing, but looking at Nginx logs scrolling on a tiny phone screen is so unbelievable.

Symbian did it first, there was an Apache version with mod_python available from Nokia themselves.
