      My problem was MMM-ResRobot. I deactivated it and kept all other modules and now CPU is at 2% and memory stable over time at around 10%. Not sure if the MM/electron/ResRobot update caused the problem, but it worked ok before. Strange…

        That’s great news, mate! I did that testing months ago to determine what was causing the CPU spikes. It was rather rewarding to have discovered the cause. They gave me an award. :-)

        Peace!

              @cyberdie @schlachtkreuzer6 It seems to be related to a certain module. Most likely it is a memory leak you have too. Try to find out by disabling modules until it works.

              It would be good to find the root cause to this though as many have problems. But that is a bit out of my expertise.

                  @retroflex probably we need some code to clear the ram periodically. I think my problem module is the MMM-Globe. But I will have to test it. (about 10 modules… So one module per day… Uff that’s a looooong way.

                      Maybe this can be the cause?
