And I can safely tell you that the ARMv6 architecture isn't very suited to computer chess.

The 1Ghz PowerPC G4 iMac using fruit gets around 200knps (which is quite slow)
The 700Mhz ARM Raspberry Pi using fruit gets around 25knps (which is incredibly slow)

To put this into perspective, the equivalent figure taking into account processor speed is 140Knps.

I have even over clocked it to 900Mhz and get around 45 knps.

I compiled cutechess (full thing, libs, gui, etc) and got a record breaking time. (700Mhz)

real 44m42sec

So you'll need a bit of time on your hands.
