I have a Raspberry Pi Zero W that is serving as my Pihole server, but that only uses about 10% of its very underpowered CPU, and I feel like I’m not getting my money’s worth. Anyone have any lightweight project ideas I can run on it to use up more of its resources?

Could I run BOINC limited to 50% CPU usage on it or is it too slow to complete jobs on time? Could I maybe seed torrents for popular Linux distros on it without the rather weak Wi-Fi chipset getting overwhelmed and bottlenecking the DNS server?

Rhasspy! If you have home assistant you can integrate into that as well for a replacement for Google Home or Amazon Echo type devices

A Gemini server.

Overlaps somewhat with /c/floss_replacement and /c/privacy; crossposts welcome
