"PIC32 Microcontroller Families With USB, CAN and Ethernet"

says:

"80 MHz, 1.56 DMIPS/MHz MIPS M4K Core
512K Flash with pre-fetch cache
128K RAM for data and program execution
Fast interrupts and context switch"

I don't know about endianess with MIPS.

It seems to be viable to do a PIC32 RTL, as the 32 PIC seems to offer a 
great price/performance relation many nice chips with appropriate I/O 
and good support by Microchip.

The said document also states:

Free USB, TCP/IP graphics and file system source code

" Broad Third Party ecosystem
$49.99 starter kit with free C compiler
Hardware trace for less than $80"

See www.microchip.com/PIC32 as well.
