Now, if there was a bigger version with 8GB RAM, I'd be considering it as a replacement desktop workstation. 8 cores is nice, but 2GB RAM is just a little tight for my tastes. (Edit: seems I got this board confused with some of the AArch64-capable boards out there.)
(Thunderbird likes to eat 4GB on its own.)
Yeah well, that's progress for you. Once upon a time, my main dev system had 8MB of RAM and a 33MHz CPU not 8GB and a 3.3GHz CPU.
I realise now that the Banana Pi M3 is still only a 32-bit machine, thought it might've been one of the ARMv8 AArch64 capable boards, which ought to be able to do more than 2GB.
I'm doing a lot more with ARM-based machines at work these days, and so having a workhorse on the desk that can do my day-to-day stuff and act as a native development platform for single-board industrial computers running Debian armel would be a handy thing indeed.
The thing is, the RAM is soldered to the board, so what it has when it ships from the factory is what it stays with, thus I figure it's important to aim high as there'll be no easy upgrades.
We've optimized the source code of BPI-Series products which use the kernel 4.2 including features as follows:
1. BPI-M1-Plus Wifi supported
2. BPI-M2 Wifi supported
3 BPI-R1 Wifi supported
3. Performance of the kernel 4.2 improved
