Yes.

Because other support programs and libraries come with Xfree86.

Size isn't the point.  Being able to have a persistent remote desktop is the
point

I'm not sure I would advise running anything like VNC or LMule on a machine
acting as a router.  Depending on what distro you are using VNC might
already be included.
