gpt said maybe port maxbuf overflow ， Tried increasing buffer size (useless) Try port (useless) Try streaming (not implemented)

I don't know what to do anymore, need help

(Sorry for the late reply, I have been rather busy lately.) First of all, thank you for considering to contribute to wournal!

This is very odd. I can not reproduce this at all, and google doesn't really point me to anything useful. We are using the same node version, the only difference (which shouldn't matter) is that I am using Windows directly without WSL. I have also tried cloning and running on Ubuntu in WSL2 and that worked as expected.

Can you try running the project under Windows directly without WSL? I could imagine that possibly WLSg (or the X Server you are using) is doing something weird. Can you also confirm that you are not running out of memory?

Maybe potentially possibly perhaps related (but unresolved):
