Let's not forget how much bigger iOS is now compared to 2007. I doubt it would run smooth on a 128MB device in 2020. Phone companies have to keep up with software's requirements.

It would not run at all. No mobile OS has a swap partition as far as I know, and it would not make sense to add one due to performance and power constraints.
