Public bug reported: having a lot of apps open my unity8-dash gets contantly killed along the apps if a certain OOM threshold is reached ... this appears like a system crash of the UI (even though it is desired killing) from a user perspective ...
checking the oom_score_adj values of all running apps i see that the dash has the same high value as all other open foreground apps: ... 11 7960 oxide-renderer 11 7963 oxide-renderer 11 7988 oxide-renderer 300 6170 oxide-renderer 802 12514 unity8-dash 802 6088 webbrowser-app 802 6873 webapp-containe 802 7425 webapp-containe 802 7910 webapp-containe (the full log can be found at http://paste.ubuntu.com/8526308/ ) given that the dash is one part of our core UI it should be excluded from app lifecycle management (keeping the same oom_score of 10 as unity8 does) so that only actual apps get killed on high memory pressure. ** Affects: qtmir (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: unity8 (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Triaged ** Also affects: qtmir (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379296 Title: unity8-dash should be excluded from app lifecycle management Status in “qtmir” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: having a lot of apps open my unity8-dash gets contantly killed along the apps if a certain OOM threshold is reached ... this appears like a system crash of the UI (even though it is desired killing) from a user perspective ... checking the oom_score_adj values of all running apps i see that the dash has the same high value as all other open foreground apps: ... 11 7960 oxide-renderer 11 7963 oxide-renderer 11 7988 oxide-renderer 300 6170 oxide-renderer 802 12514 unity8-dash 802 6088 webbrowser-app 802 6873 webapp-containe 802 7425 webapp-containe 802 7910 webapp-containe (the full log can be found at http://paste.ubuntu.com/8526308/ ) given that the dash is one part of our core UI it should be excluded from app lifecycle management (keeping the same oom_score of 10 as unity8 does) so that only actual apps get killed on high memory pressure.
