I had one last thought about this thread. I agree with Pollard that 2GB max is a very limited line.

But if you wanted to force the issue it wouldn’t probably be too hard. The LXDE desktop uses next to nothing in terms of system memory and resources and XFCE is equally pretty light weight. That would leave a lot of memory left for one of the lesser-used browsers.

32 bit is another limitation. The above link gives a list of 10 distros that still support 32 bit and therefor are also lightweight. A lightweight browser would be best too. No running firefox with 30 open tabs. Falkon is a pretty good one and made by KDE which is Linux developers.
