I really hope for Intel's Silvermont (Merrifield) to emerge as a strong contender. Not only it's 64 bit, unlike sickening ARM manufacturers Intel actually makes open GPU drivers which work with Wayland. So there is hope that libhybris will be unnecessary. This ARM idiocy needs to be broken.
64 bit issues aren't limited to RAM. It allows native calculations for 64 bit integers, which are slower when they are emulated in 32 bit architectures.
