I'm running hybrid7 ircd, an eggdrop bot and a TeamSpeak server for family use on a P233 with 64Mb RAM and 1.98 Gb disk space, using Debian Etch... the only time it has any noticable load is when we have the whole clan on both TeamSpeak and IRC... and that not much :) It definitely meets the needs in this case...
