I have a fairly hi-spec laptop, but when running my automations (they query the market every 10 seconds and sometimes fire bets), I quite regularly get system memory errors and the bets stop firing, and I have to quit Bet Angel and restart laptop.

Is this normal?

It's not normal but intensive logging can run into problems.

Are you sure its BA that's causing the errors?
I'm running a high spec PC and its taken me something to try and trigger about 50 different rules (I set it up seriously shit) before I had issues.

Was going to say the same. Only time I've ever had issues is when logging everything, every refresh

I had this issue recently, I thought it was my laptop memory so copied a heap of files to a harddrive and deleted them from my laptop but this didn't cure the problem.
I ended up setting the dynamic tuner (in communication settings) to 100 and this seemed to fix it. Before that I had it set to 50 which had been okay up until it started playing up so I'm not sure what changed.
I'm in Australia though so you could probably set it lower in UK.

Somethings you need to consider are market size.
1 golf tournament could have more runners than 60 tennis matches. Another thing is the number of bets you have had in the markets .
