Klipper would seem to be a clever solution to making 8bit boards more precise at higher speeds. Its a neat idea since you might already have a ramps/mega plus a raspi (with octoprint) attached.
It surprises me that Marlin didn't go this way with their 32-bit move since its easier to add a pi (plus octoprint giving you wifi capability) for £20 than to buy a 32bit board (like a re-arm or mks sbase) and then rewire your machine.
At present, it seems to be a pretty basic firmware compared to Marlin, Smoothie or RRF. But its a nice lateral thinking solution to the problem of slow 8bit boards, just use the 8bit board as a slave unit.
