Hi all.

My node runs on a Asus Netbook with 1 Gb ram and Linux.

It sucks a lot of CPU, most of the time over 85%

In the near future i will try to move to Windows, may the JVM is better
there !?

If the performance is right u may can use an old smartphone. Does
anybody used a Pi as node but i don't think it has enuff cpu power
