Thank you for that piece of info, Scott!
May I expand the question one bit, and ask whether the user-mode
binaries compiled for the e300 will generally work for the e500 -- or,
vice versa? Is one choice safer than the other?
I know for sure that we take a big hit on floating-point ops, but are
there other things I am not considering?
It should work, though as you note floating point will have to be
emulated (make sure your kernel supports it); better would be to compile
as soft-float. Also avoid string instructions.
