Limits of Idle Power on Raspberry Pi OS Lite for Low‑Traffic Workloads
Goal Identify whether a Raspberry Pi running Raspberry Pi OS Lite in headless mode can stay idle long enough to justify an always‑on deployment for infrequent workloads, or if external power switching or an RTC‑based schedule is required to meet cost and energy targets. Constraints & Uncertainty Raspberry Pi hardware lacks a microcontroller‑style deep‑sl
