Since a number of people were asking about mining performance on an ARM CPU used in the Raspberry Pi.
This is raw hashing speed on an rPI, This should be halved for bitcoin mining; no idea how it translates to litecoin.
Obviously this is not a test with mining code, and not tested with the performance optimizations that could be achieved through the likes of ARM native code instructions or other mining hashing tricks.
still trying to find whether it is an alpha or beta board that the test was run on.
