Btw, there ist no difference to Pi1. After booting, I do have more then 200MB of free ram. After some days of usage, free ram goes down to 130MB. I noticed this behavior for many years.

Yes i had the same behavior on my Pi 1, but that unit only had 512 MiB or RAM where 90 of them allocated to the GPU... This one has 1 GiB of RAM with 256 allocated to the GPU.

So Kodi "hogs" memory if its available?

Marked as Solved.

Yes, that's how linux kernel works in general and Kodi in particular
