If you've used an RPi4, MACCHIATObin, or a1 instances in AWS, you know their performance. Compared to the newer Graviton2 instances that have Neoverse-N1 cores, they look very unimpressive. Maybe someday a vendor like NXP would produce a similar affordable standards-compliant SoC with modern Arm Neoverse cores. One can dream… For now, the only option for relatively affordable big (16-great-cores) hardware at home is AMD. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-arm To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
