“On paper, it doesn't seem like the Pi 4 would be that much faster than previous versions, but it is.
When I received it, I measured the time taken to compile a large program and compared it to the same compilation on a Zero W. I don't have the numbers to hand, but it was something like ten times faster!
It also supports ultrawide display resolutions, which is a bonus.”
“The latest and greatest Raspberry Pi doesn't disappoint. Mine's booting from a USB hard drive and running a set of docker containers, acting as my home CCTV recorder. Amazing performance from such a small package. Highly recommended!”
“Tested OK, in use as a personal server with usb class 10 sdhc as an external storage device.
I just wish a safe shutdown button could be included on-board to avoid having to log in and shutdown by command.”
“Use to run Homebridge for integrating non HomeKit devices into apple home automation. Runs this faultlessly. Added a poe Hat board which fits into standard case. Just drilled a circle of holes to let the hot air out from the fan on the HAT board.”
