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 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! -

Huge success!@post_reader this is NetBSD - OpenBSD doesn't support armv6

@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 :-) -

Would be nice to use that for some testing :-)@fd0 here I’m using the slow SD card. A raspberry pi 3 would surely give excellent performance.
The code isn’t ready to be distributed, yet. But I think it won’t be too long.

@stefano not afraid of any wear on de SD card?

@fd0 sure, I am. But I need to test it in a very constrained environment.
