Asking about what apps someone would run is a legitimate question.
Mikael, most Linux apps port to most OpenBSD flavors. Probably much of the OpenBSD ports tree could easily be converted to a prospective little-endian Power8 OpenBSD. The very popular (in the IBM i world) Perzl-on-PASE effort is probably more difficult and less satisfactory than porting the OpenBSD ports tree would be to a prospective little-endian Power8 OpenBSD. One would hope that IBM would lend support and some engineering assistance to the OpenBSD project in the event of a little-endian Power 8 OpenBSD port being planned.
