Raspberry Pi Memory Loss
-
Could you repeat this when memory usage has increased substantially?
The chromium processes are taking up quite some memory.
I myself have none running.Did you get the latest packages?
$ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -
@evroom said in Raspberry Pi Memory Loss:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgradeok so ive done the apt-get update before so not much but dam the apt-get dist-upgrade took about 10mins or so. I just turned off the chromium run in the background even when it is closed and the use accelerated hardware.

@evroom this is how the mirror runs normally no other processes than this.

So it is an electron process, hence MM process, alright.
Now find a way how to determine which module is causing this.
Which modules do you have active? -
Can you do following ?
Please do not post output that is very long.
Just want to get a feeling if these commands lead to anything, hence the MMM module eating memory$ top -b -o +%MEM | head -n 8 $ strace -T -o /tmp/strace.out -p PID_from_top_command After about 15 seconds, use control-c to stop strace. For example: $ strace -T -o /tmp/strace.out -p 904 $ grep 'name_of_MMM_module' /tmp/strace.out For example: $ grep 'mmm-systemtemperature' /tmp/strace.out $ grep 'name_of_MMM_module' /tmp/strace.out | wc -l For example: $ grep 'mmm-systemtemperature' /tmp/strace.out | wc -l
