The big advantage of simplifying code is that you get to finish doing work and go back into a sleep state quicker. If you put the work in a loop you'll always be doing work so you wont get the low power sleep state. The advantage of the red pitaya over an arduino would be the much higher temporal resolution so you can see more of the transient changes in power usage. I think it's a bit easier to get the data off as well, but that could easily be negated if you already know how to do it with the arduino but need to learn for the red pitaya.
