Can you just run now and then free and post the results.

Request not understood.

I can watch the process size over time, if that's what you're asking.

Exactly..
pls do excuse my English sucks:)

And when cgminer eats all memory folowing happens

This is the review I posted: http://garzikrants.blogspot.com/2013/01/avalon-asic-miner-review.html

Nevertheless, the unit has seen several cgminer restarts, and a few full machine restarts. Machine restarts seem to happen every 4-6 hours. Even ignoring more obvious means of restart detection (login and look at uptime, or ping-monitoring etc), a restart is a clearly audible event: At startup, the fans race at full speed for a few seconds, before "calming down" to a more moderate pace.

jgarzik ,

I am running my lancelot cluster on similar tp-link platform with 64M of ram. I am noticing the restart of my system because cgminer 2.10.4 slowly and steadily eats all of the available RAM about 45M. Can you just run now and then free and post the results. Probably some tweaks/patches are needed to cgminer.

Paging Jgarzik. Party of one. Jgarzik, party of 1! Your seat at the ASIC table is ready. JGarzik, party of 1!

ITYM party of 2

Bitcoin Foundation has theirs too.

With so many in transit, it won't be along though, I'm guessing.

And in the meantime, folks who have purchased Avalons can ask questions here.

I think this is one dinner you'll be happy to eat alone.

Here is a general thread for owners of Avalon ASICs.

This is the review I posted: http://garzikrants.blogspot.com/2013/01/avalon-asic-miner-review.html

The restart issues mentioned appear to be have subsided (knock on wood) since I laid the unit down, and adjusted some air flow issues in my office.
