Hi All, I working on upgrading a phone with 512 MB RAM From GB to ICS It seems in ICS low memory killer is making applications start up performance slow.
When I start 4-5 apps and exit from back key processes for these apps are running in background in GB. but if I start same number of app in ICS I see lots of background processes are killed by low memory killer, and I often see below logs. <4>[ 316.945526] send sigkill to 568 (app_process), adj 11, size 4436 <4>[ 324.601165] select 612 (app_process), adj 10, size 4411, to kill <4>[ 324.601196] send sigkill to 612 (app_process), adj 10, size 4411 so when I launch the same app next time as process is not there in background . It has to start a new process which is making apps start up slow.It is as slow as when I launch the app for the first time. It seems in ICS apps are consuming more memory which is triggering low memory killer early to kill the apps. Anybody have any idea how to avoid this problem.
