Memory usage high after a few days

  • Is it a known bug that after say like 5 days running the memory usage is up to 35% on a Pi 4 with 4GB RAM?

    Latest nightly Nexus. With a fresh start its on 6%.

  • It may depend on Add-ons used. Try to discover the process which is eating memory, for instance with top command in SSH console.

    I am using Tvheadend server which sometimes starts consuming memory quickly until terminated by OOM killer.

  • The same thing here.

    I am only using simple IPTV watching TV-channels.

    Starting with ca. 300 MB the memory-consumption can quickly grow by switching between the channels several times via remote control.

    First the channels appear fast. Later more and more slower. The memory usage is then round about 500-600 MB.

    The old channels are "not released".

    If it's to slow I must restart kodi.
