Another interesting small computer

I've pre-ordered myself one of these

http://www.cnx-software.com/2013/04/...ortex-a15-soc/

It is not a Cortex-A15, it's a Krait; it's quite close to being a Galaxy S4 with the phone bits removed. I'm expecting to be able to get a comparable Cortex-A15 at about Christmas.

I'll be interested in how it compares with the quad-A9 I have at the moment; I haven't worked at porting gnfs-lasieve4I, so I'm mostly doing msieve on that machine on numbers of size around C96. It's slow but uses little electricity and was cheap.
