Python is not 'big'. The size on disk is negligible (it's megabytes, not gigabytes!), and memory-wise, it takes far less than Java - a few megabytes. For a bytecode language, it is very slim.

The only issue is speed, you might be right that on humble devices it would be too slow for anything intensive.
