The Pi only needs the boot partition on the SD card. You can easily put
the root FS onto a USB HDD – which of course will narrow down the USB
bottleneck even further.

Also, you can use the Raspbian unattended netinstaller[1] to get a very
minimal Debian Jessie and then point apt to the Devuan repository.
