Does anyone run one of the above on a Pi 4 and can share their experience how good or bad they run?

If course, transcoding won't be any good and OCR probably cannot run in parallel, but aside from that - is it okay?

Currently running everything on a mini ITX with a i5-6600 which handles this easily for my small use cases, but also draws 20-30W idling most of the day... I'm eyeing a Pi 4b with 8gb RAM but don't want to spend the money and then realizing that it doesn't run smooth enough

Yeah, I've read about using a Wyse 5070 for this a lot by now. Maybe I'll explicitly search for them instead. All I've seen around me are 4gb models, however. The Stack I'm currently running blocks 3.7gb in idle... So that's not enough
