I could wait a little time after going in BG, and then clear cache. But what if the app gets killed before my timer expires? I can't clear cache immediately on going to BG, or else the app performance will suck. Is there a solution to this dilemma? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
