Oh yeah, NetBSD 9.0-stable 64-bit also only takes a few seconds to boot on a Raspberry Pi 3B+. It's easy enough to just throw on an SD card and try out. Alas the Raspberry Pi 4 isn't supported yet by NetBSD, though I think it's coming along. An RPi4 with 4 or 8GB of RAM should be a very nice turnkey SIMH server.
