I'll try to test it somewhere, my NAS has PowerPC processor, so I can't test it there.

I'd be glad to be of some help.

I've been helping out at Yoyo@home to get a couple of applications running on ARMv5 too, as you can see starting here.

TIA

Again, I'd be glad to help you out. I could compile to application on my ARM NAS if you'd like it.

In spite of the ARMv5 lacking HW FP, it's clocked higher than the ARMv6 on the RaspberryPi. Again, I reiterate my willingness to help out creating the app for this platform, arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi.

TIA

Guys, I could not help noticing that you mentioned that you got running times of 40-80 hours for an Asteroids@Home task on your Raspberry Pis (even if this was 1-1.5 years ago). My Asteroids@Home tasks run for 210-230 hours on both my Pis involved in this project.

My Pis are not overclocked at all, but still it seems that there's a huge running time difference between what you have measured in the past and I am measuring now. Have A@H tasks become larger lately? Or could it be that my Pis are not set up well? They run the latest Raspbian and BOINC 7.027.

My running times of 210-230 hours are a big problem because they can barely make the deadline. In fact it looks like the currently running tasks won't make it.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

The WUs are now longer than before. I will adjust the deadline.

I took all my Pi's over to E@H after the last size increase

I did post about an updated FFT library for the Pi here that might yield a speed increase, however the project would need to revise their app to make use of it. Of course it all depends on if the app uses FFT's.
