Volumio 4 Feedback Thread

Hi,
Volumio V4 will take longer to boot on a Raspberry Pi 3. This is due to Bookworm, which introduces newer software and packages that add overhead on older hardware.

Without more details, it’s hard to confirm whether your HAT is fully compatible with Bookworm. Could you share which HAT you’re using? (Whether it’s on a Pi 3 or Pi 4 shouldn’t make much difference, though you may need a GPIO extender to raise the HAT above the fan.)

Here’s an overview of Raspberry Pi memory options:

LIMITS found in programming

I feel that you are missing the point. In the most generic terms allow me to elaborate quite complex technical problem. Pagination of MPD in Relation to Available RAM and Raspberry Pi Versions (1 to 5) Understanding MPD and Memory Usage The Music Player Daemon (MPD) on Linux is central to Volumio’s library management. It loads metadata for all files in the library into memory, without using traditional pagination. This approach makes memory a critical factor when dealing with large music collec…

The price difference between the Pi 4 1GB and 8GB models is typically around €30–50. Keep in mind that more memory won’t reduce boot time, that’s better improved with a USB thumb drive or SSD. Extra memory will, however, make the Pi run faster overall.
