Control System Issues

[Greg McKaskle]

The last reported and confirmed DS memory leak was from 2010 beta. The changes between the '13 versions only have to do with info being logged to the DS files.

What dashboard was being used? Could that have contributed?

Without more information, my suspicion is that the OS itself wanted a reboot. I occasionally awaken a laptop from sleep and see that all sorts of stuff is bogging it down. Do you have any idea what was running? What OS version?

My recommendation would be to reboot it each morning of a competition. I don't know that I see a need to do it before each match. I'm sure there are teams that reboot it once or twice before each match. Whatever works for your team.
