Computers crash when starting on several in a short time

I'm an IT worker at an university, we have Jamovi working on some classrooms and when it is run on a computer at a time ( boot computer, launch jamovi, it starts, shutdown computer ) it works on all the computers, but when all the computers are boot up and Jamovi is launched in a classroom of about 30 to 50 computers some of them ( 5 to 10 ) crash, can anyone shed a light on this behavior?.

This has happened with different versions of jamovi and with either locally installed and virtualized with software 2 cloudpaging system.

hi,

this isn't something we've heard of happening before.

you could try running jamovi at the terminal and see if there's any helpful errors produced.

(the cloud version is an alternative if you don't end up figuring it out: https://cloud.jamovi.org )

cheers
