I promised it, so here it is. This is a recording of littleFedi running on a Raspberry Pi Zero W on NetBSD.
Everything is on the SD card, the database is SQLite, and caching is enabled.
Personally, I won't comment on responsiveness or anything else; I'll just say that when I use it (both via the web interface and with apps like MastoBlaster or IceCubes), I find it hard to believe what kind of hardware it's running on.
Users' sessions (by default, a maximum of 8 users but configurable) are kept "warm" with every interaction or federated activity for 15 minutes since the last login; after that, the server enters "low power mode" and simply processes incoming data without activating the (users' timelines, etc.) cache.
We don't need to get ripped off for more powerful hardware, which comes with outrageous costs these days.
We just need to optimize and build efficient software.
Abundance led to waste.

@stefano Luckily Open Source server side software seems to be mostly immune to Wirth's Law ("software is getting slower more rapidly than hardware is becoming faster"), in fact thanks to easier to use "bare metal" languages (Go, Zig, Rust...) we have a great pick of super efficient self hosted software. People 15 years ago probably wouldn't have believed how much stuff you can host on a simple Raspberry Pi.
On the other hand client side and web application performance nowadays its mostly a joke, having to replace perfectly working phones just to keep using WhatsApp or having Reddit lagging on a MacBook M1 is ridiculous. Open source often isn't much better either since lots of stuff nowadays is still based on Electron and/or bloated React setups.

@stefano oh my god I read your blog post. SO many goodies. 33MB RSS with this amount of functionality? And in Go???!
Can't wait to try it out! :D

@stefano nice! Is this littlefedi project linked to snac or is it a different thing?

@stefano Truly impressive.
And yes, there is *so* much computational waste these days that it's jaw-dropping.

Wow didn't know openbsd has a wifi driver for pico w
Huge success! -

@paul yup. Then again, the Pi0 is hundreds of times what a SPARCstation 10 was, and we ran a full Usenet feed plus several hundred concurrent reader connections on one.

Stefano,what "disk" hardware do you use?
Is there a full spec available? I have a Pi 3B laying around somewhere...
Would be nice to use that for some testing :-)
