We run a multithreaded web server on a Philips LPC2106 (60 MHz
ARM, 128k Flash, 64k RAM on chip) with an external Ethernet
chip (RTL8019AS or AX88796). Cheap, fast, small.

If you need more web page space, you could use the LPC2138
(60 MHz ARM, 512k Flash, 32k RAM on chip).

For more details of the stack, see:

Depending on your spec/cost/time tradeoffs, there is no
need for Linux and "big" hardware, providing that the
software is designed for smaller systems.
