This already happened like 2 or 3 times in the past 10~12 days, maybe...
Then, toay, I had a Core Lightning crash that I will also paste here te log of it. Not sure it's the best idea to put here the crash but maybe it could be related. If it's totally unrelated, I'll delete it later.

The first logs don't reveal anything which is weird. The second logs just say that your bitcoin backend died, you should check bitcoind's logs on why that was. I have a suspicion that your OS is killing processes, maybe because it's running out of memory?

From Bitcoin Core logs, at the same time I can't see that Bitcoin Core has died:

The memory issue you suggest may need some more investigation. I need check further!
Ok, I think memory might be the cuprit of some of the issues. From what I can see, clnrest is kinda memory hungry, no?

Why it consumes so much memory? A single plugin... I it expected?
I'm no expert and i have recently tried to figure out how much memory a process on linux actually uses and my conclusion was: it's hard to tell. I thought it's just RSS but i got conflicting information saying that malloc is not aggressive enough to reclaim RSS, so it could stay high but be actual free memory. Anyways it should only get that high if you do a massive request through clnrest, like doing listforwards with i think hundres of thousands to millions of forwards in a response.
But in case there were actual memory shortages malloc would of course take any memory from other processes if it's free. So if you see your processes getting killed with oom errors and clnrest is still that high it should confirm something is wrong.
From what I can see, and I'm no expert either, but with Gemini help, clnrest, bitcoind and lightningd are consuming most of it:
My node is quite small and not many routings are happening and also I'm only using RTL and LNbits. And LNbits is me testing the frontend. Nothing with too many action for my node.
When I tested my small node on amd64 using::
printf "%-12s %-8s %-8s %-8s %-8s %-8s\n" "PROGRAM" "PID" "SWAP" "USS" "PSS" "RSS"
smem -k -c "pid swap uss pss rss" -s pss -r |
awk 'NR>1' | # skip smem header
while read pid swap uss pss rss; do
if lsof -nP -i | grep LISTEN | awk -v p="$pid" '$2==p' | grep -q .; then
pname=$(lsof -nP -i | grep LISTEN | awk -v p="$pid" '$2==p {print $1}' | head -n 1)
printf "%-12s %-8s %-8s %-8s %-8s %-8s\n" \
"$pname" "$pid" "$swap" "$uss" "$pss" "$rss"
fi
done
I received very reasonable numbers (PID 47159 is RTL & 237200 is cln-application):

According to AI - the much higher Swap, USS, PSS, and RSS values on ARMv7 are expected due to a combination of hardware and workload differences, whereas the smaller numbers on amd64 reflect headless, memory-efficient server processes.
Hardware architecture differences
- 32-bit processes can use more memory for the same workload because some memory allocations are less efficient.
- Many ARMv7 devices (e.g., Raspberry Pi) have limited RAM (1–4 GB), causing higher swap usage.
Why numbers are higher on ARMv7
- Processes like /home/.../Downloads (electron apps) load multiple library copies.
- Electron-based GUI apps often consume hundreds of MB even for small windows, inflating USS/PSS/RSS.
@daywalker90 Can clnrest be further optimised for ARMv7 without impacting performance on other architectures?
