Contiki on Ethernut

Posted by michael on from the goodbye-contiki-web-server-nice-knowing-you dept.

randomErr writes "Many of you may remember Contiki, the OS and GUI for the C64 and many other 8 bit platforms, which was posted on Slashdot in March. Adam Dunkels has ported Contiki to a more modern platorm: the open source Ethernut board. You can also see the working webserver and VNC server."

    I think most of the slowness comes from lazynes. Designers use DBs for everything, even pages that never change. I honestly belive a lot of web apps out there that use huge-ass systems could easily be run on a normal PC with some good optimization and caching routines.
