The op needs at least 400kBytes of external ram to hold his data and presumably a few tens of FLOPS to do the calculation. This is too much for a microcontroller, it will have to be done by a microprocessor imho. The MIPS boards available fit this description nicely, along with x86 embedded boards (gumsix, micro-itx, pc104 etc).
