[Ovmsdev] High hologram usage

[Mark Webb-Johnson]

Craig,

Can you show your ‘module summary’ so we can see what is running? In particular just v2 or also v3 server?

The only other time I’ve seen something similar is where the module was in poor connectivity - causing it to reconnect frequently and leading to very small connection data transfers (which Hologram and other providers round-up).

Regards, Mark.
