Have the script die after, say, 20 minutes (you'll need to add a timeout to `receive_frame` so that it doesn't block, but that's find) 2. Have a cron job that launches the script every 15 minutes, but does so using a mechanism that prevents multiple instances running at once (I think systemd has a function for this, otherwise it's possible to use flock) This way, you are sure that any unused memory is cleared regularly, any updates to the code are picked up quickly, if it crashes it'll be running again soon, and so on. We called them "cron daemons" (distinct from the cron daemon that actually does cron.) It will need some migration (from daemon start to a cronjob), so it might be good to have a "timeout" command line option and then it can be migrated in the packages for example, but normal "run forever" behaviour will remain for everyone else. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
