On the second point, KitKat is supposed to run reasonably well on very weak cheaper mobile hardware with 512mb RAM, which is popular in developing countries.
Galaxy Nexus has fairly high specifications with 1gb RAM, and at least 16gb of storage (which presumably is where the operating system is on this device), so I doubt the image size was the issue.
There is indeed a Cyanogen Mod ROM available (but I'm not sure how much trust CM). I wonder if Chromecast Android screencasting would work with the CM ROM..
