The article mentions the Arduino, which in its original incarnation is an extremely tiny AVR. Maybe the author has a more powerful Arduino variant in mind, but I'm pretty sure you cannot run a GC runtime on the AVR Arduino. The only language that runs on such tiny devices is probably eLua.

Yes, RPi/BBB won't have a problem.
