Austin Pivarnik has tweaked his Raspberry Pi to become what he believes may be the most stable example in the world — by doing away with heat-linked clock jitter with some clever busywork to keep the processor at a stable temperature.
Austin Pivarnik Turns to CPU Busywork to Create the "World's Most Stable Raspberry Pi"
No, this isn't about crashes — but about getting timing drift down as low as possible by stabilizing the on-board crystal's temperature.
