My main desktop is a Raspberry Pi 4B+ with 8GiB. Mostly I'm messing with GIMP on smallish pictures, about 1000 pixels square. Just now GIMP has about a dozen of these open. Plus two dozen instances of an Image Viewer program that I concocted with Python and PIL, and 3 or 4 pcmanfm windows with thumbnails of up to a couple thousand of these pictures each. `top` says that swap is full (100MiB), but there's 1.2 GiB of memory available. GIMP that came with Raspberry Pi OS is not wonderfully stable -- might crash once a day on average. Doesn't seem directly due to memory shortage though. Console messages from one time that I ran it from the command line hinted that there might be mutual exclusion problems with GtK, or something. --- Post to this mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe from this mailing list https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
