Q: Frequent kernel panics, EtreCheck "good"

Previously discussed as "Frequent kernel panics on retiring iMac." Suspected low memory so I doubled it, but iMac panicked within 5 minutes of startup. Following is the EtreCheck run successfully after it panicked while running EtreCheck. The panic report seemed to be too long to add but could be later if it might be useful. Surely would appreciate any hints.

 

EtreCheck version: 3.0.6 (315)
