I have the following follow-up question: Even for small apks (single broadcast receiver, few lines of code), top shows a few MB of memory usage. Is there a rule of thumb how much of this is shared and how much is approximately due to the apk?
(I'm especially interested in the situation where there is one main program that sends a broadcast to several apks. Would this scale well, or would this quickly fill up the memory, even if the individual apks are small (since all broadcast receivers would be called concurrently)).
