Yes hippy, an overclocking test. The rpi was a non profit educational idea that has took off but I wonder how many find it easy to use. On the other hand it has scratch As a what next option..to do what? I tried using the gpio pins with python, it's slow considering it's running at 1GHz. I'll try using the 3rd party pigpio library with freebasic when I get into it more.
The arduino, it's just a chip and on the standard boards it seems, there's not many pins to play with.
I reckon a lot of people find picaxe difficult at first. I knew what I wanted so it was just syntax and a bit of help. I wanted to make a robot and had one running in a few days. I keep a browser open when I use a rpi because I'm constantly copy/pasting stuff. Seems to take hours to get anywhere. Pretty complicated really.
You said a 1k buffer could be written in 30ms. The i2c oled I used was slow maybe? The line drawing code seemed optimal in the end but the lines didn't just appear and I bet they do on the RE ledo42, why, because it uses a dedicated pic.
If what next means speed then gcbasic seems best if you can only use basic and it's probably faster than C. You'd need to see the code produced. It's surprising what a picaxe can do,not what it can't. I re-wrote one robots code to learn gcb syntax but didn't programme a pic because it's ok as it is. As for lcds,I bought a nextion to save the bother.
