It should indeed be able to handle those requirements, and I think that matches the original use case from Sqreen.
Obviously, of course, there is no warranty and especially since I only recently adopted this project, I'd encourage anyone using this to run untrusted code go over the codebase and its assumptions very carefully.
And as far as running untrusted code goes, anything running V8 is subject to V8's stream of CVEs: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=v8. Whereas V8 in your browser gets aggressively auto-updated by the browser's auto-update feature, PyMiniRacer's update schedule is unlikely to be as reliable (and depends on your own action to update your pip installation!).
N.B.: the memory limits operate on a per-context (per MiniRacer object) basis, even though (for historical reasons) you can (attempt to) set them on a per-eval basis.
