It doesn't take a lot of CPU.

I have a 433 MHz AMD Geode (i386 clone) running ntpd's IRIG decoder.  Top 
says the CPU usage bounces around a lot.  Typical large samples are 2.3%.  
Round that up and we are talking 20 MHz.  It would be fun to get it running 
an an ARM and see how slow it could go.  (Or pick your favorite embedded CPU.)
