I still have a very old USB key with Puppy Linux on it from, back a darker time when I didn't have my own computer.
I've booted quite a few very old systems with it, probably down to Pentium-era machines, and things usually ran well. I do remember it was quite RAM intensive due to having a relatively large filesystem in RAM. I'd say 64 MB is a minimum if you actually want to use it for anything.
