Hi
Low power and system load are both worth putting some dimensions on.
A very simple system may be ok with a single client running into it and
nothing else going on. A system that will handle 500 hits a second is
something altogether different.
Low power could be < 100 watts, it also could be < 100 milliwatts. There
will be a power / load tradeoff ….
Since you already seem to have a bit of this and a bit of that (high power
server, low power Pi) it is worth considering exactly where you are going
with this new build.

==========================================
Bob,
The maximum test rate I could produce was 75 packets/second, and the
Raspberry Pi handled that without any problem.
Cheers,
David
