About once a month, my 2018 Mini running Catalina apparently takes it into its
head to crash, and then restart. Evidence for this: screen suddenly goes dark
and the power LED on the Mini goes off, then on, the apple apears on the
screen, overlaid with a message in a few languages to this effect. A bit of
fiddling with Spaces and I can continue.

Does this (from the system log):

Dec 8 19:02:26 localhost bootlog[0]: BOOT_TIME 1702062146 761383

tend to confirm this? If so, what else from any of the logs might help
indicate what is causing this in the lead up to 19:02:26, that anyone here
might make some sense of (that is, more than I would, which would be zero)?

TIA.

A totally wild guess but could it be caused by a memory leak? For instance
use of VMs such as VBox have been known to cause these. Are you not
restarting or closing down your Mac on a regular basis ( not that I’m
saying you should)?

Typically it only gets restarted in these circs, or if we go away for a couple
of days, in which case I turn everything off except the router. I do use
Win/Lin VMs in VirtualBox quite a bit, but not for long. I only have them for
testing Win/Lin builds of my software. As it happens I was, in fact, doing
that in the lead up to this crash.

Looking at iStat Menus at the CPU temps for the crash moment, looks like
several cores spiked at 80 to 90 C with high power consumption.

Virus, VIRUS, *VIRUS*, it looks like you've got a virus malware
trojan worm rootkit and you need ClamXav from Dave Boater's WinXP
machine.

He'll supply *yards* of endless supremely good advice on how to use
this magnificent tool. It takes one to know one thoroughly.

Also: "top -o cpu -n 23" in a Terminal window. That's "minus-oh [the
letter after Enn in lower case]" and "minus enn" [the letter before Oh
also lower case] and the digits two and three.

The "top" command will run forever unless you "CTRL-Q" "Q" or kill
the Terminal window.

Because something's railing your processors. Maybe.

My bet's on Firefox.

Or WindowsServer.
