We use SEEED reComputer J4011 (Orin NX 16GB modules) in production and have noticed a concerning leak in slab memory on every module in our fleet. It leaks at around 20-25MB a day. The only way to free this memory is to restart the device. See the below chart from Grafana tracking SUnreclaim by scr…

There is no update from you for a period, assuming this is not an issue anymore. Hence, we are closing this topic. If need further support, please open a new one. Thanks ~0324 Hi, Could you share a source that can reproduce the GPU driver leakage so our internal team can look into this? Thanks. …
