Pete,

Can you please annotate your graph: when does drop_caches run? Is it every time the yellow line moves back up? When would KStars crash if drop_caches didn't run? At the bottom of the first downward yellow line?

Also, how much swap space do you have? Is that your issue?

Thanks,
Hy

PS Off topic, but instead of µSD, you should definitely consider using an SSD with your RPi4.
