This is pretty amazing. I remember the first computer I installed Linux 1.x on had 12 megs of ram in around 1992 or 1993? The smallest system I built/ran it on even back then was probably a 386 with 4MB of ram and it was so slow. Kind of amazing that after so much work, even torn down to the bare minimum it can run the modern kernel on such minimal hardware!
Edit: probably worth noting that esp32 cores are an order of magnitude higher frequency than those 90s computers.
