Even if you cripple the cRIO to only a quarter of the specs Eric provided*, it's still no contest. 1/4 of the cRIO's specs still beats the Propeller, and that's without the FPGA, which does a lot of the heavy lifting in FRC. I still don't understand what you expect to gain.
*I'm not an expert, but that sounds unrealistic under normal circumstances or even heavy FRC usage.
