Mine had lots of RAM, including Standby, and this morning it's at 9997MB of Standby RAM and 2237MB of Free RAM.

There's nothing in the Wait Chain (says it's running normally), but the Waterfall isn't moving and nothing has decoded since 2044Z.

I'm running HRD, HRD LogBook, WJT-X v2.3.1, and JTAlert 2.16.14 if that helps.

Aha!  Since the computer that's running my Ham Radio gear is a separate mostly-headless(*) machine, I usually keep an eye on it using Microsoft Remote Desktop from my main desktop Mac Mini.  I had a brainstorm and discovered that shutting down RDP causes WSJT-x to hang.  I'll try restarting it with only the KVM switch, and see if that solves the problem.  Probably something happens when the display 'disappears' and is then reconnected.

(*) Mostly-headless means connected to a KVM switch, but rarely selected, as RDP is far more useful.  Except for the 'causing WSJT to hang' thing, of course.  Yes, keeping RDP up 24x7 is another solution, but then my Mac has to stop getting wedged and having to reboot, which is a whole nother rathole.

Willie,

RDP does things to audio streams as it tries to route audio to the remote client. WSJT-X is probably not hanging, more likely it is no longer receiving audio data and that will stop the waterfall from progressing.
