Just want to see if it is possible before I give it a go.

Ask the Dev or see the website/github whatever?
But I won't think so, personnaly.

If you wish a small and energy/noise saving I'd try an Intel NUC or some
small fanless PC like this, and of course with SSD better than HDD.

Queried them yesterday, waiting for a response

Why not, BrickSync will run on Linux and the Pi has multiple flavors of that
OS you can run.

There you go spending my money again, is this payback for the After eight mints?

Donno, but if you're paying in After Eights, I can ship you a NUC

No kidding, as this is supposed to be "sync in real time" (or close) I would
NOT rely or anything that could be even a bit slow.

Sure that depends of many many factors, like total number of lots to sync, frequency
of orders, your ISP speed, etc.

I did for a while about 2019, and it ran fine on a Pi 2. But I guess it depends
on volumes. 3 or 4 orders a day, no problem, if it can sync faster than you get
orders in. If you are getting 100s a day and close together, then maybe you need
faster syncing.

As a buyer I did once do an experiment filling the same cart on BL and BO with
the same seller. I bought on BO, opened my BL tab and the parts in my cart were
OOS.

This is encouraging. I was getting about 5 or 6 per day when people could use
the checkout in my store, now it is 1 or 2 a day.

  If you are getting 100s a day and close together, then maybe you need faster syncing.

A man can dream, right?

Thanks I think I will give it a try.
