Vorbis - Apr 2002 - minimum processor\ram requirements for decoding vorbis files

Assuming Linux as the operating system, what would be the minimum processor/ram
requirements to decode ogg vorbis files?
I'm looking at building a vorbis player for my car, but I need to know what
speed and how much ram I'll need.
Thanks for the help.

>From personal experience, I can say that ogg123 and xmms run fine on a
Pentium
166 MHz as long as you have enough RAM to prevent swapping from occuring
during playback (depends on what else you are running).  I think a Pentium 100
MHz would be the minimum requirement for reliable playback in Linux and the
current decoders.
