I tried to get the JIT to work on ARM a couple of months back. Since the author explicitly turned off the JIT, I suppose there's still work to be done...

The jit works, it's just that RPython's support for cross compilation is weak, and it requires a fair amount of memory to compile.
The gist of it all is that compiling pixie with a JIT for ARM requires an ARM machine with at least 1GB of RAM. I've gotten it to compile with a JIT on my Raspberry Pi 2, but it's a bit tricky.
Once the interpreter is compiled it only takes about 10MB of ram to run, so my long term goals are to release pre-built binaries.
