It's really just for tinkering at this point, or cheap build systems I guess. There's some small edge cases where the existing instruction set will beat ARM or x86, but they're very niche. Eventually it's expected to be a contender to the more optimized stuff we see in ARM chips these days.

Usable where you would otherwise use a raspberry pi? How does it compare in computation?

It's still very subjective to who is making the main CPU, but yeah. It's meant for low power applications.
