Yes it will be more lightweight but of course at the cost of limited options.
I'm running basically everything off of my 5501:
Apache (mostly for Horde/(d)imp), MySQL (for wordpress), postfix,  
spampd, bind, dhcpd, tor, squid, privoxy, Samba, arpd, ntpd, nfsd and  
inetd to name the important ones. But I also have screen session with  
irssi running most of the time. 512MB is a lot if you don't run X.
Kind regards,
Alex.
