Not that I am aware of. > or to avoid heap fragmentation? The only thing I can think of specifically addressing heap fragmentation is to try to reuse large buffers rather than free the memory, if you *know* that you can reuse those large buffers. For example, on API Level 11 or higher, use inBitmap with BitmapFactory.Options when reading in bitmaps. Beyond that, try to use less memory overall, try to use smaller memory allocations (e.g., smaller bitmaps), etc. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training...At Your Office: http://commonsware.com/training -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
