Each process gets up to 64kB of code and data.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He succeeded in his efforts, and he describes performance on the little board as &#8220;pretty decent&#8221;, though he hasn&#8217;t tried overclocking the Pico yet to see how much he can get out of it. He has <a href=\"https:\/\/cowlark.com\/2021-02-16-fuzix-pi-pico\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">documented it all over on his blog<\/a> where you can see how he did it and how to reproduce it yourself. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.raspberrypi.org\/forums\/viewtopic.php?p=1821732\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Over on the Raspberry Pi Forums<\/a>, where he posted the work as a thread, you can see the exploits of other people who have replicated the project, as well as some more information on hooking up an SD card reader like so:<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_20873\" style=\"width: 522px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20873\" class=\"wp-image-20873 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.recantha.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/FUZIX_bb_small.jpg?resize=512%2C512&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.recantha.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/FUZIX_bb_small.jpg?w=512&amp;ssl=1 512w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.recantha.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/FUZIX_bb_small.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.recantha.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/FUZIX_bb_small.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.recantha.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/FUZIX_bb_small.jpg?resize=260%2C260&amp;ssl=1 260w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.recantha.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/FUZIX_bb_small.jpg?resize=160%2C160&amp;ssl=1 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-20873\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Thanks to Alasdair Allan again for this wiring diagram<\/p><\/div>\n<p>David&#8217;s plan is to look at porting Fuzix to the full Raspberry Pi at some stage, so <a href=\"https:\/\/cowlark.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">keep an eye on his blog for that<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>David Given has been working on porting the Fuzix operating system to various microcontrollers and he wondered if he could get it working on the Raspberry Pi Pico.
