MM loading all modules is taking 2-3 minutes.

I am having a new to me weird issue where when i restart mm it takes 2-3 minutes to load. During that time it is loading all the modules under mmm-carousel module. Eventually they will all load and work as they should. Any Ideas what causes this?

plainbroke · Jan 13, 2024, 3:11 AM

These are the modules I am running under MMM-Carousel.

Which browser should I use?
Chromium, Midori, Firefox, Surf or is there a better one to help with the load on the RaspberryPi 4-8gb version?
Since I am running so many modules on one pi under MagicMirror 2.24

@plainbroke you should not have a problem on pi 4 8gb.

if you run speed test does the network speed look proper?

can you do free -m
you should have no swap

also run top to look at CPU performance and active processes

I do have a swp file.
Do I need to get rid of it and if so, how?

@plainbroke said in MM loading all modules is taking 2-3 minutes.:

Mem: 7846 535 6374 230 936 6862
Swap: 99 0 99

but not used… size 99meg, free 99meg…

so, its not a memory problem (6862 meg free)

no… that is the GPU driver stuff… usually not enabled in /config.txt in 2.26 we disable using the gpu by default to turn off these messages (instead of leaving it on in 2.25 and prior)
