I'll send some out later today.   With the nice weather I've been spending 
time doing yard work getting the deck and bbq ready. :-)

I have had time to run some tests on my Rpi-2 and while it is a quad core and 
faster than the B it looks lilke xastir is only running on one core anyway.  
I'm seeing about 10-12% cpu,  zoomed out with 600-700 stations on screen.  I 
get the occasional higher burst when changing map scales.  This is on an Rpi-2 
using X over an SSH connection.  Using the local video would certainly be 
different, but I would think it's more of a load using the remote X session.

And as Curt pointed out,  I'm much closer than  I used to be.  You can find me 
on xastir (http://xastir.org) but we can hook up at one of the breakfasts if 
we don't solve it here.   

Also, don't forget I'm also often sitting in the wetnet xmpp conference.
