Stopped Node-RED graphical event wiring tool.

it does not happen al the time. It seems to happen more when CPU is near 100%

I do not know what it means. i can not find the cause of the problem.

Looks like some missing error handling in node-red-node-pi-gpio.

With that type of error there isn't much you can do as an end user - the node needs updating to handle that case.

Seems to be in the on close event / re-deploy. Is easy enough to add a try/catch around the the write that is failing... but not sure of the consequence of that... will it leave the child process dangling ?
