Cortex A5 is from 2009, not sure how you can expect it to do anything decently, and the reviews mention it is locked down.
 
By the specifications, going for a Pi4 would be a better idea, even if it is slightly more expensive. Better still, get a 3-4 generations lower i3 and it would be miles ahead of an Rpi4 and it will run all your home lab stuff in docker / LXC
