Why not give it a try?  Bind only uses about 3% of the cpu on my 2Ghz machine, and if this is going to be a dedicated box, you can reserve the rest of memory for the cache.  I'd agree with disabling logging, but otherwise see no reason why this machine couldn't handle name services?

As long as there's a bind package for that Linux distro, it should work.  (Micro)SD cards are relatively slow, especially on writes.  You may want to disable bind logging.
