Raspberry Pi Zero now has Wifi and BT

What are peoples' thoughts on whether this could be a viable option for an MC audio renderer?

I'm not sure about using it as a renderer but I would be interested in one running Engen.
I believe they use a quarter the power of the Pi3.

The zero is about the same speed as the original Pi1. For running MC its probably just too slow to be really reliable.
