Actually it doesn't need a decent processor, there are devices doing similar decoding tasks using a 180Mhz ARM CPU and less. SB2's RISC CPU should be up to it.
Decoding isn't the problem. But the management of a few thousand songs (there are people using it with 100'000 songs!) and serving web pages does need a little more performance. Go through the forums: there are user running slimserver on devices like the linksys NSLU which use something like 200MHz CPUs. But they are reportedly rather slow on scanning and browsing.
