Updated kernel for the 3B+ is now on sources. Also contains some performance tweaks for ethernet and usb which should apply to all Pi models. Kernel source in /n/sources/contrib/miller/9/bcm USB ether driver in /n/sources/patch/usb-ether-lan78xx Compiled kernels in /n/sources/contrib/miller/9pi2

> Running Linux, 3B+ seems perceptibly faster than 3B. 1400Mhz vs 1200Mhz might be perceptible, and the improved heat management will help if your CPU frequency was being temperature-throttled. Ethernet bandwidth for the 3B+ on linux is claimed to be about 300Mbit/s. With Plan 9, I'm seeing a li

hi, great work richard, i hope to try this soon. the network performance is the biggest draw for me. do you any feeling why plan9 sees only 200Mbps ether? is it the stack design, how plan9 accesses the hardware? or maybe the 300Mbps quoted is only when using jumbo frames? -Steve On 5 Apr 2

"The Python performance with this new Raspberry Pi 3 is now in line with the Pine A64. While the PHP performance is between the Pine A64 and ODROID-C2" from this test it sounds they didn't care much about typical scientific supercomputing... and their udp throughput test is slower than the tcp one

They’re still under the same baseline SoC constraints (plus the USB bus). Biggest constraint for me is the lack of RAM, though. R. > On 5 Apr 2018, at 23:13, hiro <23h...@gmail.com> wrote: > > "The Python performance with this new Raspberry Pi 3 is now in line > with the Pine A64. > While the
