Yes that would be nice.  I'll post on alt.privacy.anon-server as some
people there are using hashcash for remailers, see if anyone has one,
or other interesting hardware).

Someone sent me some arm code a long time ago now:

http://www.cypherspace.org/hashcash/riscos/

mixture of basic and arm assembler.  I am not sure what processor it
was on but he got 13,875 hashes/sec.

Maybe I can find the mail if I still have it see if it gives the
processor.
