Just for the record, I am still running Mayan on my Pi2 and am really happy
with it. Its just a home archive for bills, receipts and stuff to reduce
clutter.
One of these days I will upgrade to the current version, but v1.1 is enough
for my needs.

As Jonathon mentions you would be better off not using Docker on SBCs, they
are resource constrained as it is. By far the best distribution is armbian.
I don't remember if they support the RPi but I stopped using those and
don't recommend them boards nowadays (technical and non technical reasons).
Best results for SBC personally have been with the ODroid C2 using eMMC
storage. The ODroid C2 has a 4-core 64bit ARM CPU and 2GB of RAM which is
the minimum recommend for Mayan. Use TurboJpeg libraries of libjeg-dev.
Disable automatic OCR, tesseract uses a lot of memory and is CPU intensive.
There is a ticket to add concurrency support for the tesseract backend and
allow it to run just one copy at a time, slower but will not grind the SBC
to a halt. Other than that the install is pretty much the same. I use
SQLite to lower the memory usage even further at the expense of concurrency
but Mayan on a single board computer is not meant to service a lot of
users.

If you can deal with an even slower setup, the Banana Pro is another
alternative. It is slower but has built in WiFi, SATA interface (internally
using an USB port) and power management (AXP209 chip = internal UPS and
smart power on/off). The attached photo is an actual build I use at home
with a Lithium backup battery built into it.
