Armbian on a rock64, an older version of the rockchip. is in fact much faster than a pi4. If the interfaceing for linuxcnc was there it would be more than capable of freezing out the pi. Unforch there is zero interest on the part of armbian for realtime kernels, so you're on your own building one. That could be done, I've done it for the pi3-4's. But this section of the market seems to think their future is in multimedia, and has zero interest in machine control. For going outside the Foundations fence, I am blacklisted on the raspian pi forum. As a home cnc machine builder, that attitude is killing the market these devices could own if they wanted to. So I have one machine run by a pi, drawing perhaps 25 watts with the lcd monitor. The other 4 are running on old Dells, drawing 250 watts with monitors. Its the build cost that restricts the pi's, over $200 to interface to a machine, The Dells are famously lacking in real i/o, but a usable machine can be built for $65 in interfacing. The first arm board builder to give us two pcie slots or two net ports. or even 2 parports WILL OWN this market if the MSRP is under $100 with 2 gigs of ram. Ideal would be one pci-e, and one net port. SSD's can be put on the pi4's on either or both, usb-3 ports. > As a workstation they are more than adequate.
