[postgis-users] PostGIS on a Raspberry Pi

I enjoy hearing about folks heating up multiple cores on their big iron.
Reporting from the other end of the spectrum, I have PostgreSQL 9.1 /
PostGIS 2.0 running on a Raspberry Pi <http://www.raspberrypi.org/>. My
Raspberry Pi's day job is as a chickencam
<http://www2.greenwoodmap.com/>(that's a web cam in the hen house
monitoring chickens).

I did an intersection of 5k complex polygons in a couple seconds. If the
chickens hadn't been flapping around it probably would have been even
faster.

PostgreSQL and PostGIS are amazingly flexible, scaleable pieces of software!
