Do you honestly think is possible to run a sphereserver on a raspberry pi model B+?

700Mhz broadcom bcm2835
512MB ram

Experimental purpose with the raspberry, nothing special.

I prefer to eat my pies instead of running servers on them Big Grin

Ahahah yes i know, is just to have fun bcuz I have it in my drawner right now and i am not using it so I was thinking to use as a test server.

Rizz... i develop for Arduino, Raspbarry PI and so... i guess with a Raspbarry PI 2 Model B you could run a server for tests, or even a small warshard with no issues!


Make the test... maybe i'm wrong and the first model have power enoght to!
Seeyah!

I would say you could, but if you get a semi reasonable amount of items on your world and a handful of players, you'll find your RAM will get eaten if your processor doesn't lag your server before then. We've all seen sphere lag with 30 odd players on Dual Core machines with 2.6ghz processors, so I doubt a single 700mz will hold more than 3-5 players as a test/development server.

But it may be a nice development server, if you could unplug it, move it around

Yeah it's just for develop purpouse but in the past I ran a sphere51a on an old intel PentiumIII server (the machine was ultra stable) with 500MB ram, 70 players reached without any problem and no lag.
Later we found a proper host.
