Very fast is NOT what I would use to describe a Cortex-A8. It is among
the slowest chips you could possibly run Debian armhf on. A9, A15 and
A7 are all faster.
Of course compared to the chips previous Arduino's use, sure then it
is fast.
Now I wonder how the price will compare with the beaglebone black which
uses the same chip and is quite cheap.
