I am synching the blockchain on a rpi 4 with 4 gb ram. Sometimes monerod uses upto 3 gb ram and system basicly freezes. Is it normal? Is there any flag that I can use for db sync to be less heavy? Not using any db flags atm.
Thanks!

Raspberries lack physical AES instructions, I am not exaggerating when I say this could take 5-6 weeks to sync. There are other SBCs like the Rockpro 64 that would be way better suited for a node but the most economical option is getting used mini-pcs from ebay for $50.
It will have high RAM usage because it is constantly writing and reading during sync.
