Tried many settings. 0-2 is just too much for a RPI 3b even with priority switched off. Now at 2-3 still without priority for 2 hours without glitches. Seems to work. Serious testing would be after my 3 weeks vacation. Thanks
Running at 90% priority with 1-2 now, still no problems in past 2 hours. I will test further and tell you what the sweetspot for a Pi 3b based streamer (Magna Mano Ultra MKII in my case) is.
I compared priority of 40 for mpd Vs 60, 70, 80, 99. The reason to pick 40 is that places the priority of the parent mpd tasks lower than the IO tasks, which mpd fixes at 50.
I prefer this lower priority (40)
However I prefer to leave the priority unaltered for Spotify connect
The Volumio team removed it because they found a problem in the start-up that affected some Raspberry Pi builds. I have made their recommended changes and have a merge request pending. Once the Volumio team is happy with the changes they will publish the plugin again.
FYI:
Updated to newest version but the system states nothing has changed:

I am aware that the Spotify Connect one was automatically migrated, but not really clued in to what is happening for the rest of the plugins in the store.
I believe there are some new tests/procedures for the plugins in place, but not sure what the status is.
@volumio/@mervinio are all current officially available plugins going to be migrated over to the new myVolumio plugin store? Or is this something each dev must choose to do?
