Rockpi, raspberry pi, orange pi all have 4 or 6 core arm64 sbc.

    For comparison a raspberry pi4 is nominally 270 bogomips

        How did you get the output formatted like this? I tried, but failed. edit: and somehow omitted the Flags: fp asimd evtstrm aes pmull sha1 sha2 crc32 cpuid

This is not server-class hardware, which is what's been requested in this thread.

  I'ts going that way though. ARM NAS server board with ECC RAM: https://shop.kobol.io/products/helios4-full-kit-2gb-ecc-3rd-batch-pre-order https://shop.kobol.io/products/helios4-full-kit-2gb-ecc-3rd-...

And the linked systems are mostly multiples of 48 cores and hundreds of GB of RAM. Totally different class. A raspberry pi might be good for very small scale experimentation of little apps, but my 4GB model took months to arrive and doesn't come close to matching the performance of the smallest instance I would use at $DAYJOB.
