Rebooting the whole NAS is unnecessary. Just restart the Roon server app.
I’ve had on/off memory leaks for as long as I’ve had it installed on my NAS. It’s unclear whether this is down to some flaw in f the Roon code or its interaction with the NAS firmware. I think I’ve read about instances of ROCK installations needing to be rebooted from time to time, for example.
Thanks for the report, I do agree that it is indeed high memory usage. I have taken a look at the diagnostics from your QNAP and I am seeing traces that indicate that this could be related to the Squeezebox Transporter you have. Can I please ask you to perform this test?
Try to reproduce the same issue
Once the high RAM usage is present, physically disconnect the Transporter you have from the network
Note the exact local time (ex. 5:57PM) that you disconnect the Transporter
Take a look to see if the RAM usage remains the same or if it starts decreasing over a period of a few hours
If it doesn’t start decreasing then reboot your Core with the Transporter still disconnected and verify if the RAM starts rising again while playing back to a different zone
Please let me know if you are able to run this test and your results when possible and I will discuss the findings with the team.
Will do Noris. It might be a while now as I had to restart the core after taking that screenshot since the ram usage was affecting operation of the NAS.
Next time it happens I’ll follow your steps and report back.
