It's more the quantum than the target that is an issue on *wrt, IMHO.

(I got no problem with testing each of these in isolation)

I am starting a test run now. So far no crashes on the ath9k side on the archer.

Two things I am not testing on this platform are HT40 and crypto. (I
was using the x86 versions for that). Nor was I monitoring cpu usage
on the previous archer test runs (sigh), and for some value of
consistency, am not doing it on these either. I'd *really* like more
ht40.....

I will finish bootstrapping up my "c.h.i.p." nodes to do better
airtime fairness testing soon via the rtt_var tests.

Ideally I'd like more to join in on this hopefully last push to get
the core patches upstream.

Note that in the US...

it's the thanksgiving holiday which can be interpreted as either
people spending more time with family - or being free enough from work
to dig in and test the heck out of this stuff (or in my case, fire off
a big automated test, while spending time with family). :)
