As you're getting into specific specs: The devices Telefonica used for their deoms were weaker than those Mozilla used for the demos with Gaia UI (Samsung Galaxy S II in the latter case). Still, all those are of course demo setups and there's a couple of performance improvements still to be made.
That said, Android needs ~300MB for the base system, B2G needs ~100MB. So there's a real chance that B2G can be more performant on low-spec devices than Android.

Android only started requiring ~300MB when nice UI features were added in ICS. You can still run older versions - and they will work just fine.
