      @lavolp3 he’s been fighting this for some time now… we’ve both experienced the same problems…
      but mine not recently…

      I run the same modules and also another one of mine that does additional images, and my systems run on and on… without problems… Pi4 (buster) , jetson Nano(ubuntu) , Pi 3(stretch) , odroid (ubuntu).

      we have increased swap space
      turned on and off disable cache in electron
      he has tried current 3.1.13, and 6.0.12 (as I recall)

      I am running electron 3.1.13 on all

        What size SD card do you have?

        Have you ran

        sudo raspi-config
        

        selected the expand memory the second screen?

        I had that problem when first starting MM. No problems any more with 32 GB of space.

          @johntech Huh? This is referring to RAM memory, not hard drive space. I was writing to explain how you can extend the swap by using filesystem space to prevent the system crashing from running out of RAM.

          Sorry if there was any confusion - I actually manage a Raspberry Pi operating system, so am very familiar with the tools and techniques available.

              @johntech no worries! “Memory” is often confused in this context. Hope you learned something 😁
