[DOM01]

I'm looking for some assistance in planning my home automation.

Right now I have a Raspberry Pi 2 with domoticz, nodered, mqtt on it. It seems to be running well and is very stable. I have a few z-wave devices on there within domoticz and I have the usb Aeon z-wave stick. The node-red has many automations to bring in the blue iris security system and various other things. Most communication is done via mqtt or calls into domoticz via http.

I recently discovered openremote and did a proof of concept on my iPad which worked great. My concern is that openremote uses "sensors" to bring in data to the ui. Each sesnor has a poll time to check the device, say a switch in domoticz. To make the openremote ui on the iPad responsive I had to have this set to one second. So down the line, with a nice openremote interface on my iPad displaying domoticz status I am looking at many many calls every second into domoticz. Can it handle that? When I look at the openremote log it becomes huge with the amount of data being requested from domoticz. I know I can turn the log off etc.

If I need to move domoticz to a core i3 now, perhaps a Gigabyte Brix then I would rather do it now before getting too far into it. I have notes on everything I did to get domoticz working so a rebuild on perhaps debian i3 should be ok.

thank you!

If you add the motherboard sensors to domoticz you can check the cpu and ram use over a few days.
