+There is an issue with the HBMQTT broker that can cause a memory leak (slowly increasing used memory). This causes an unstable system after the memory is full. You could measure/monitor this with a system monitor. The issue is from 2016 and could already be resolved with newer versions. Use another broker when you experience this issue, for example, Mosquitto.
