Raspberry Pi OS 12 (Bookworm) released

[TheOldPresbyope]

Well, I haven't gotten around to spinning up a fast NFS server but I did find a Samsung 980 SSD 1TB M.2 NVMe storage stick. Like I said, I don't have a M.2 Hat yet  so plonked the drive into a M.2 NVMe to USB3.2 adapter. Plugged it into one of the Pi 5B USB3.0 ports and, using it as the build directory, ran the builds for the main branch and the bookworm branch.

r837/bullseye - 21m20s
r900/bookworm - 27m19s

Compare to the 124m I got building on  the uSD system card. Pretty dramatic improvement and a nice demonstration of the Pi5B speed.
