Hi, I very often get bug reports about out-of-memory errors.
Those errors are caught bei the default exception handler where I then ask how much memory is left (see below). Very often, like in the case from below, there is plenty of memory left though. I am wondering why this is? Of course, it might be that the bitmap (bitmap size exceeds VM budget) is actually megabytes and megabytes, but as these are resources that are small (and used by all the other users that don't get ooms) I would say that's not the case. Maybe the memory has been freed between the error and the measurement. That would be unfortunate. Any better wetter to measure the current memory consumption? Or am I missing something and there is a completely different explanation? That would be wonderful and maybe give me a completely new attack vector against those bugs. FWIW. I embed WebView and it is one of my top candidates for huge memory consumption. Maybe there is something I can measure?
