The (rather pessimistic) performance estimate for the parallella is from 2kh to 4kh per core, that's from 32Kh to 64kh for a 16 core board, consuming about 5w of power.
It's not that impressive but considering it's low wattage it could be worth a try.

Plus it is very inexpensive.  probably cheaper than leasing a dedicated server.

Anyone bought one of these? Please let us know! I'm willing to get wet with this project.

I paid for one, and I'm on the preorder list. I'm looking forward to play with it!!

I am very curious to see how it works - would seem like an ideal match on a price/xpm mining basis.

I wonder if this will still be cost-effective now that the gpu miner finally looks like it becoming a reality.

I don't mind if it ends up being not cost-effective, I plan to use it for other things too.

I know - but it is so cheap relative to high-end GPUs, it might still be a better value.

Hi, post progress.
How you will use it?
CPU mining?

CPU mining?

I'm going to buy one to test with mining cpu coins and if its not profitable it becomes my 3d printer host. It should be just as fast if not faster than my 8 core amd slicing stl's into gcode.

Can't you just use a raspberry pi as 3d printer host or too weak?

No need to bookmark, just "watch" the thread.

I can use it to host the printer but not to slice stl's. I have had some models take up to a half hour to slice on my 8 core amd. lol

I can also think of another project that might be fun with one of these.

Add a usb tv tuner and mythtv and you have a DVR with the processing power to convert to avi on the fly.

I think this can perform as good as a corei7 3770k when using the co-processors.

Ufffffffffffff.
Parralella is ARM base?
Works with an Linaro Linux?

I guess so. The hardware is not that rare. So you could easily get support.
