I set up a similar machine, with 256MB ram, recently and when I tried 
LXDE and used iceweasel with more than one tab, I remember it seemed to 
be swapping to disk (some? a lot? can't remember, but enough to make
me change the de/wm).  So I replaced lxde with icewm which seemed 
better, though I haven't really tested things thoroughly.  Didn't you 
have any swapping issues with LXDE and regular web browsing?  (If not, 
are there any tricks you might suggest?)
