+1.
The RIP3 has been a total disappointment for me. Its runs as slowly as
a BeagleBoard, BananaPi or CubieTruck. I continuously run benchmarks
against a HiKey, Pine64, ODROID-C2, RaspberryPi-3, BeagleBoard,
BananaPi and CubieTruck
It also suffers obscure runtime crashes when attempting to compile
with ARMv8 features, like CRC and Crypto.
An Aarch64 image would be very welcomed.
