I don't want to sound overly negative, but attempting to support every useful combination of hardware and drivers, particularly in any kind of supported, certified configuration, ultimately leads back to the same result: just running a

All the bandwidth in the world shouldn't matter if the underlying technology has the same latency and the memory bus is serving a fixed number of small requests in parallel, right? Overall processing speed in an uncached memory bound a

The other responses to this have been woefully speculative at best, plain wrong in others. The short answer is to rent one for a month and benchmark your particular application. I was surprised to discover that with a workload composed enti

The article suggests interrupt load is the major issue, although doesn't really say enough to inform us. A 12.5ms buffer means potentially just 80 wakeups/sec. They don't mention whether they use multiple hardware queues or i

Sadly the rk3188 on-chip controller is only capable of 100mbit. There's a few more (particularly Freescale) units with gigabit, but generally more expensive. Gigabit or USB3 is when these things start to look insanely attractive IMHO (

Changelogs like "Bugfixes to cffi and ctypes" are pretty useless. Do these bugs affect my code? Is my code going to explode horribly if I don't upgrade? Is my code going to explode horribly if I do upgrade? etc.

For a little perspective, the remaining 20ms still leaves enough time for oh, 55 random SSD IOs and time spare to zlib a megabyte of text. Or about 4.8 million instructions of a modern 2.4ghz CPU. Just what does this app do exactly? Aah..
