Is it likely that you would run servers "at scale" on a RPi?

[oefrha]

A newer rpi is in fact more than enough scale for most websites in existence.

A RPi is more powerfull than most PCs I owned between 1990 until 2002.

Come to think of it, in terms of computing power, the ESP32 is probably more powerful than what you used before 2000.

[pjmlp]

I always compare it to a Amstrad PC1512, given its memory.

Still even with limitations, there was a ton of stuff we could do in MS-DOS, let alone a more powerful system with dual core and built-in networking.
