I forgot Pi3 was only 1Gb. mherger wrote: > Would the 2GB limit be per process or overall? I don't use PCP (yet), so my "advice" was based on what I think I read in pcp threads.
I think there are two issues - Perl pointers (check using perl -V:ptrsize ) and 64 bit OS kernel address. Multiple process will share the memory that is accessible to the kernel but most of the time LMS is one process managing many players. If user does not already have a Pi3B+, it is worth going for Pi 4 2GB over a Pi 3 with 1Gb as they are same price and there'll better performance. If a user already has a Pi3B+, is it worthwhile upgrading to a Pi4 ? Possibly - especially if large file collection, maybe not if mainly internet streaming. If user is "price sensitive" - is it worthwhile to go for 4GB as 4Gb vs 2Gb is 60 vs 38. - not sure but maybe future proofing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113445
