Regardless of whether the Pi’s firmware can actually be updated
or not – it’s probably not good for diversity to run the whole Tor
network on a single kind of device: we don’t want every relay in
the network to be compromised when a single flaw on the Pi is
found. Performance might also suffer, though I hear it’s gotten
better with the Pi 3. For stateless x86 hardware, this paper is very interesting:

stateless laptop.

I can confirm "rpi-update" usually works fine to update firmware. But don't forget to run this command sometimes by hand, no auto-update during the system /apt-get upgrade/firmware of RPi can be changed: https://github.com/Hexxeh/rpi-update / https://github.com/Hexxeh/rpi-firmware |
