Both have os's with fq_codel built for them, the beaglebone is at kernel 3.8.13 and the raspberry at 3.6.x. There is no measurable difference in cpu usage for fq_codel vs pfifo_fast on either, either. The beaglebone has 2GB of flash on board, the raspberry requires a very breakable (already broke one) SD card. The raspberry has a zillion interesting add-on boards, the beagleboard has a cape system which is not as wildly popular. (wow, the black sold 30k units in 6 weeks) The context for this is that I've long been looking for a decent & cheap debian based box to host active (e.g. the python based rrul test) and passive measurements from, much like the boxes samknows and ripe are using, but with a modern kernel that I could trust. (so far as I know both samknows and ripe are 2 years or more out of date). The beaglebone black comes close. I wish it ran at gigE speeds, though. --=20 Dave T=E4ht Fixing bufferbloat with cerowrt: http://www.teklibre.com/cerowrt/subscribe.= html
