Pine A64 +OS X

Good point. I'm personally uninterested in video encoding/decoding at the moment, I'm using these boards as small servers for testing software I write, so every bit of CPU and RAM performance I can get is a bonus, also 64 bit can help a bit in that field. I'm at the limit on some of my software with the RPi 2s with memory limitations, CPU never gets above 80%.

I don't see how '64 bit' might help here without re-compiling the whole userland also:



Please note that they compared A57 using 32 vs 64 bits. We're talking about the slow A53 implementation the A64 uses.

That means that if the Pine guys do not at least base their promised Ubuntu release on the Arm64Port then the '64 bit' are pure marketing.
