Craig,

Please also disable the PSRAM bug workaround and maybe do some performance comparison. SPIRAM operations should run much faster without the workaround.

What kind of tests should I run?

I've just added an execution time output to my SPIRAM test command, which was meant to trigger the memory corruption, but can also serve as a memory benchmark.

To get comparable results, run the tests after booting with "config set auto init no" (you'll need a USB connection).

Tests with my results (ESP32/1, SPIRAM fix enabled, debug output removed):

OVMS# test string 1000 2
finished 1000 loops for mode 2 using extram in 33503 ms

OVMS# test string 5000 4
finished 5000 loops for mode 4 using extram in 30268 ms

OVMS# test string 25000 6
finished 25000 loops for mode 6 using extram in 34681 ms

Test mode 2 reads from metrics (involves locks & stream formatting), mode 4 reads a fixed string from the config, mode 6 is mostly pure memory copying.

Regards,
Michael
