World's Teeny-Tiniest Desktop Ever on the R01!

I don’t think that is the “teeniest desktop ever”. My PocketCHIP is a 4ish inch LCD with a whopping 480x272 pixels. It runs a regular Debian 8 X11 desktop. Although you don’t normally try to get two windows on the display at once. Basically you run everything maximized and [ALT]+[TAB] between running apps.

That is what I’ve been comparing performance to on this thread:

I’m really surprised by how slow the 64bit RISC-V is. And its really got me curious as to why. I’ll be doing more tests later.
