 I'm currently doing a lot of experimentation with Tor relays on single-
 board computers such as the Raspberry Pi.  Currently, 'arm' is *very*
 heavy on such machines, taking a lot of memory and CPU.

 It might be worth it to release a PyPy[1] powered version if it results in
 significant improvements in speed and/or memory usage on resource-limited
 systems with ARM CPUs.  Or, possibly, to build alternate packages for
 users of the Tor Project repos for Debian et al.
