Hello Tobias,

Thanks so much for answering=2E I doubt the culprit is the power supply=2E=
 It is the Raspberry Pi original one and have been working fine for months=
=2E Now with 1=2E50 works just fine=2E Now it is arm_boost=3D1 in config=2E=
txt working fine=2E I will return it to arm_boost=3D0 in order to not stres=
s the pi too much during compilations=2E

I am tempted to return back to v1=2E51 to see and verify if I can reproduc=
e the bad behaviour again=2E

Regards=2E
