      Nobody can tell me a application with black background and some “only text foreground apps” should not be able to run more than 2 hours or not?

      You are in the minority … I have 3 running, without issues… 1 of them has been running a solid year without any issues what-so-ever.

      With that being said being rude to someone trying to help you is not really a way to get help…

            Uninstall PiHole. If you search this forum for PiHole you will find two other threads with similar memory issues, both related to PiHole. After removing it the issue was gone.

                  @yawns Thanks. But last “overnight” test with only original config.js also crashed with stretch. So now a new test with jessie looks much better. Including pi-hole. It runs since 22 mins and 47% free ram. :-)

                    Thanks for your feedback, good to know. So one more reason against Stretch

                      @Mykle1 said in MM is eating all memory and crash!:

                      Use Jessie, not Stretch

                      I rest my case. :-)
