WHY is my VIM4 so S-L-O-W and jerky after only being up 24 hrs?

Which system do you use? Android, Ubuntu, OOWOW or others?

Ubuntu

Which version of system do you use? Khadas official images, self built images, or others?

official?

Please describe your issue below:

I’ve posted about this on this board (somewhere) but can’t find it or any replies, of course. Never fails to stutter more and more the longer the system has been up. A reboot resets that “clock” for a few hours at least… What gives?

Btw, it is SUPER annoying.

Hello @skypuppy

Are you providing the adequate cooling overhead for your device, using the official active cooling heatsink and airflow ?

You can check the thermal info with

$ fan.sh temp

For diagnostic information, please try running

$ dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999

And share the link to look at the kernel logs to find a reason for such behaviour,

Also if you would like to improve desktop performance,
You can force the GPU to run at higher speed with

$ echo 2 | sudo tee /sys/class/mpgpu/scale_mode

Regards.
