Details

I have three machines, all running Fedora 38. The desktop is the main development machine, but I have two rather ancient laptops I use as test beds.

Currently I am working with the team on GitHub project opensourcepos. The desktop machine behaves perfectly, but both the old laptops running dual core Celeron CPUs and 4Gb RAM always get ECONNRESET errors when I run npm install.

All three machines are connected to the same modem and there is no proxy involved.

Is there a hardware lower limit to the capabilities of npm?

Node.js version

node.js v18.19.0
npm v10.2.3

Example code

No response

Operating system

Linux david 6.6.9-100.fc38.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Jan 1 20:31:07 UTC 2024 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Scope

When running npm install for the opensourcepos project

Module and version

                          I have three machines, all running Fedora 38. The desktop is the main development machine, but I have two rather ancient laptops I use as test beds.
                          Currently I am working with the team on GitHub project opensourcepos. The desktop machine behaves perfectly, but both the old laptops running dual core Celeron CPUs and 4Gb RAM always get ECONNRESET errors when I run npm install.
                          All three machines are connected to the same modem and there is no proxy involved.
                          Is there a hardware lower limit to the capabilities of npm?
