ATM its showing an uptime of 18.75 days, and is 160 megs into swap. Swap itself is a 10G partition on a 120G SSD, separate from the 240 G work drive so that is working at USB3 speeds. I don't consider 160 megs to be a problem child unless it impacts the uptime, which at times has been several months as its on a small ups and I have automatic backup power that limits downtime to about 10 seconds even if the neighborhood is dark for hours. Recall that this pi is building and installing master or master-gtk3 many times a week. That is working harder than running LCNC. > > > > _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
