This sounds really interesting. I just started playing with a Pi3 and it seems
pretty cool. A lot of power packed into a tiny box. I think Picolisp could
really make the most of the pi ;-)
Note that some of the default memory cards to drive the pi are Debian based.
Note Picolisp is available in the testing branch for arm64:
https://packages.debian.org/buster/picolisp.

Now, I'm thinking, what if I get a Raspberry 3 (64bit arm processor) ? I'd have
a dedicated machine, no virtualization overhead and I'd just need to ssh to it
from the Mac to access picolisp.
Anybody has run picolisp in such an environment?

Alexander,
What I'm finding is interesting. When I start pil and just stay inactive,
TinyCore uses about 5-6% of the cpu on qemu, while Debian works at about 3-4%.
In both cases I only installed a minimal system and I work on the CLI.

Sorry for the late reply.
JC I think you probably downloaded TinyCore 32-bit (x86) by accident. You need the
64-bit version: http://www.tinycorelinux.net/9.x/x86_64/release/
<http://www.tinycorelinux.net/9.x/x86_64/release/>
Get the ISO file "TinyCorePure64-9.0.iso" (27MB) and boot your VM from that. If you only want
"headless" (no X), then you can try the "CorePure64-9.0.iso" (14MB).
Another option, if you don't mind paying, you can rent a VPS server for US
$5/mo from Linode (or maybe OVH?). I was connecting to that over SSH for my
64-bit PicoLisp development (Debian 64-bit).

The only issue with this setting is that to run picolisp I have an overhead of
~5% cpu use just to run VB headless.
Trying to do everything again in qemu, to see the total cpu use...
Ok, debian is *super slow* to install under qemu. The positive thing is that
the cpu overhead seems to hover around 3% and there is no need to access the
headless machine via rdp (which adds yet another overhead + a messed up
keyboard layout once the machine is available in Xquartz).
I so wish picolisp were running on macos directly, but I guess that will do for
now...
