=== Begin facspeed.py ===
#!/usr/bin/env python
import time

def factorial(n):
    result = 1
    while n > 1:
        result *= n
        n -= 1
    return result

n = 100000
start_time = time.time()
factorial(n)
time_diff = time.time() - start_time

print '%d! computed in %.3fs' % (n, time_diff)
=== End facspeed.py ===


System          SoC/CPU                 OS + arch       time
XO-1.75         Armada 610 @ 0.8GHz     Debian armel    199.108s
XO-1.5          VIA C7-M @ 1GHz         Debian i386     199.285s
OpenRD          88F6281 @ 1.2GHz        Debian armel    181.277s
Desktop PC      Athlon BE-2300 @ 1.9GHz Debian amd64     34.180s


I must admit I'm surprised by the result. sup (my MUA of choice) feels
much slower on XO-1.75 than on XO-1.5 - and that's even though dstat
reports higher SD card write throughput (with a different card). Maybe I
should do some side-by-side comparisons.
