[nagaculun]

Anyone ?

@nagaculun sounds like the swap space might need to be enlarged

[nagaculun]

@sdetweil and how do I do that ?

Thanks

@nagaculun now now… google is your friend

@nagaculun Are you using MMM-GoogleTrafficMap? This module has a severe memory leak. Increasing swap memory will not help, as it just shifts the freeze to a later point in time. Other option is to setup a cron job that reboots regularly the RPi.

@Fozi i have a fixed GoogleMapsTraffic module on my github.
I submitted it, but it hasn’t been picked up…

@sdetweil thanks for the heads up!
Didn’t know you fixed it. I’ll give it a try for my next MM version, I’m currenttly planning.

@Fozi I dont have the MMM-GoogleTrafficMap. Even just the default clock module has the issue.

I setup a cron to reboot every day at 6am; and it happens as well.

@sdetweil

Just modify accordingly. Now wait and see. Thanks.

@sdetweil
It still freezes even I made the modification.
