    So the CPU usage doens’t spike with animations?

    Not so high like my first one (100% permanently), about 50-60%. Here is a picture from my ATB, that arrives today. Naked installations, standard config / css / modules. 75% peak. Bad.

      Sorry to hear that man. I can get mine replaced for free, but I think I get a Pi with the same hardware

        Both of them are the BCM2835 Hardware-Versions. First BCM2835 has the problem, the other BCM2835 hasn’t. Wow… :-D

        Well, there goes my theory, if the installations are exactly alike.

          Oh hell no. This issue gets more mysterious by the day!

            That is even high, in my opinion, based on my results

              For what it’s worth:

              Hardware: BCM2835
              Revision: a02082
              

              And I do not have the problem.

                It definitely helps. I think we can now eliminate the possibility that the difference in hardware has anything to do with this issue.

                Thanks!

                  @Mykle1 Yes, you’re right. Yesterday I installed the new raspbian stretch and all MM tools manually, uninstalled electron and installed the @beta (1.8.). I wanted to give that a try. But still the same.

                  As you can see, the problem is there , less or more, over months (with that 50-70% cpu usage). With 2-3 animations at the same time my raspi struggles (raspi2 and raspi3). But a few days ago, there were an github update. Since that update my mirror is unusable. Why?

                  git pull && npm install
                  

                  says, that there was a change in the readme file only. But it doesn’t seem so.

                      Since you are addressing me directly, I will answer, directly and plainly. I don’t know why your mirror is now unusable. I joined this topic because I was/am interested in determining why some people have this problem and others don’t. We have eliminated some possibilities but not all. I can sympathize with you, having struggled with problems of my own. There only seems to be a handful of people experiencing this problem. I am not one of them but I am trying to determine the cause using what little knowledge I have.
