Summary


One of the most popular questions found on the Internet is how to increase the Pi's performance! This is because the Pi has been labeled as a small computer which directly associates with modern day desktop computers. This makes a lot of people think that the Pi will perform as efficiently as a full, multi-core computer.

The purpose of understanding the architecture is vital to a successful, long term project. The Pi works "like" any other computer, but it was designed purely for experimental and learning purposes. It should not be used in production environments, but it is an extremely attractive alternative.

It is an excellent platform for sharing media between friends at school. It is fantastic for streaming HD media on your TV, and it is robust enough for some standalone applications.
