Pretty sure the pine is arm64 rather than armHF. I know I've installed Pi (hf) packages onto my Pine, but I'm not sure you can actually compile natively on a Pi without it cross compiling -and at that point a desktop is almost certainly faster. Nearly everyone else on HN is likely to have more understanding than me though, so listen to them as/when they set me straight :) I have to say though, when it comes to network IO, my original kickstarter pine64 blows the raspberry pi's out of the water (though this might just be due to the network card not being strung off the USB bus).
