After running for a few hours pmap reports the kodi.bin process has a total of 514Mb memory mapped and 113Mb proportional set size (PSS)

according to the ps_mem script (https://github.com/pixelb/ps_mem/blob/master/ps_mem.py) kodi.bin uses 110Mb

But in the end, "free" reports that around 400MB of pyhsical memory is in use when kodi runs - by that I mean all processes. I guess that 300MB should be still enough for other things.

Because official OpenELEC uses it and I want to be as close as possible to official code for an easier updates. And why not? There would be a lot of work to change it to SysV or whatever they used before.

also, great to see kswapd issue is being worked on. never realized allwinner is using cma, but its kinda understandable, since there is lots of free memory available...

It should work, at least that video which I linked a page or two back. Do you have a video which doesn't work? Anyway, maximum resolution is 1080p so 4K video is scaled down.

So I've been trying to compile a new version and keep running into an issue related to the building of pulseaudio.  My build dies and I get the following errors :

  1. /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so: file not recognized: File format not recognized
  2. collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  3. libtool: install: error: relink `libpulse-simple.la' with the above command before installing it
Copy code


Not sure what changed since I had been able to build before, I'm running Arch which I suspect may be an issue but as I said before I had built images before.

It seems to me like GCC issue. In the latest upstream pull, GCC was also updated to 5.3. I suggest that you remove build directory and build everything from start. It worked for me. I recommend this actually always when some important system package or tool has been updated.

It was a 10bit movie (Chappie 2015 (4K 2160p Web x265 HEVC 10bit AAC 7.1 Joy)[UTR])
Maybe h3 doesn't support 10bit ?
