Subject: minimum CA Server requirements

I am very new to EPICS and only just started to work my way through the lectures, documentation and program text. I wonder how lean and trim a channel access server could be? For example, is it ridiculous to think about running CA Server on a 100MHz ARM Cortex-M3 with 256 KB flash memory, 64 KB SRAM and 10/100 Mbps Ethernet?

I am also very new to RTEMS. If RTEMS is too heavy for a minimal hardware environment, could a trim CA server be ported to FreeRTOS with the lwIP (Lightweight IP) stack without serious re-engineering?

Thanks for any comments, speculations or pointers to reference materials!
