Since a large percentage (if not the majority) of Karma users are envisioned to be using OLPC XO-1 laptops, netbooks, older hardware or generally relatively slow systems there are several performance constraints that need to be taken into account when designing Karma lessons. | Since a large percentage (if not the majority) of Karma users are envisioned to be using OLPC XO-1 laptops, netbooks, older hardware or generally relatively slow systems there are several performance constraints that need to be taken into account when designing Karma lessons. | ||

* Mass storage: Since especially the XO-1 laptop only has very limited local mass storage (1GB) lessons should be kept reasonably small. | * Mass storage: Since especially the XO-1 laptop only has very limited local mass storage (1GB) lessons should be kept reasonably small. | ||
* Connectivity: Karma lessons must not assume constant connectivity with a locally (e.g. [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/School_server XS]) or globally available server. Support for storing data locally will be provided by Karma. | * Connectivity: Karma lessons must not assume constant connectivity with a locally (e.g. [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/School_server XS]) or globally available server.
