you could probly use a unix from the console on it too. FreeBSD is good for oldies, although I have a P MMX 166MHZ (maybe 200MHZ) and 32 MB of RAM running redhat for a proxy/web server. I had to updrade from 16 to 32 MB RAM to put redhat on it though. FreeBSD will run on anything with at least 4 MB of RAM (but to run the installer you need 5 MB).

NAME

       varnetload - tool to create reproducable network traffic

SYNOPSIS

       varnetload [-d delay] [-t time to run] [-u url]

DESCRIPTION

       varnetload is a simple python script to create reproducable sustained network traffic.

       In  order to use it effectively, you need to have an HTTP server present in your local LAN where you can put files. Upload a large HTML (or
       any other kind of file) to the HTTP server. Use the -u option of the script to point to that URL. Play with the delay option  to  vary  the
       load put on your network.

       delay  Sets  delay between individual downloads in miliseconds. Default value is 1000. But you my find values range from 0 to 500 more use-
	      ful.

       time to run
	      Sets total run time in seconds. Default value is 60.

       url    Sets downloaded resource. Default is http://myhost.mydomain/index.html.
