How does app2ext/link2sd save RAM?

i hav no clue but afta i used S2E and link2sd my ram has jumped.. before it used to be stuck around 35-40 now around 60
Sent from my Milestone using xda premium

I use aggressive 2 settings. My ROM(pete alfonso bugless beast) Doesn't allow for me to change home locked in memory, so i'm not sure if that changes anything.

Latest versions would fix that... I just posted updated 9 RC5

How about a link? ;-)

I'm experiencing similar behaviour - after moving lots of apps to my ext4 partition via Link2SD my old stone seems to be more responsive.

is it the same with the native cm7 app2sd? and how is the battery usage?

its not native cm7 app2sd normally gives sumthin around 160-150 free space...with s2e and link 2 sd it 191 when i newly flashed cm7 and considerable increase in ram

I don't know
I abandoned CM7 some time ago because of serious performance issues when using the camera and Maps while having the launcher locked in memory.
Only thing I can tell is that I noticed a speed gain when I started to use Link2SD.
Might be applicable for other ROMs as well.
I can only assume that it's caused by more space being available for caching purposes.

Options 3, 19, 20 in RC5. I didn't put KAK, dunno if I should. (Used it b4 and still not sure if it is good or bad)

Is it possible to get my memory usage even lower?

Currently using stock gb 2.3.6 and I just changed my wallpaper to static and deleted most of my running apps only to see my usage of ram is 400/800, any chance I can lower it even further without doing any flashing to the from...

Either you are drunk or your keyboard has been cheating on you
+1 on the lighter ROM OR
At OP: there is an app called system tuner, where you could decide which applications should start, using that you could have a restricted start up and "might" be able to reduce memory usage.

From your question it's obvious that you have no idea how linux or android use ram..
More free ram does not mean better multitasking.
What a stupid thread! Go and educate yourself before posting nonsense here.

True MockingBird! All the other posters in this thread haven't a clue lol..

I think more free ram needed for play hardest games without swap. It's wrong? But for multitasking no need much free ram. It's right?

Google how linux uses ram.. It's too complicated to write in a few lines here..
The OP thinks of ram from a windows users perspective. Windows doesn't know how to use ram correctly.

Dont apoligize. Learn up on Android and how it has been specially built to distribute RAM & memory. Info for those who dont know - unlike PC's, when we see very little RAM available (Settings/Apps/Running), its actually a really good thing. It means our system is ready with almost all apps preloaded. When you have 90mb+ of free RAM, you should be worried. Thats why i discourage many from using task killers and superchargers. It f*cks up how Android manages its RAM.

Not entirely true. If you have 90MB+ of free RAM at boot, for example, you'll get a lot of cached apps. So, in a way, what you see is not entirely what you get. You only ever get that much true free RAM after executing a heavy (in terms of RAM consumption) app.

the best combination rom+kernel il gdx v29+alfsv08a.

Maximum RAM used

Hello everyone! Having a 2GB RAM in nexus 4, I am curious how much max RAM have you people used. After running my daily apps like Facebook,8 tracks, flipboard, what's app, viber,xda, drop box, chrome, I have used a Max of 1.2GB RAM. Post your max RAM usage.

Lol. Yup. That extra ram Will be much helpful for the future updates. My friend's one x's 1 gig of RAM is now not sufficient for him.
Imho, nexus 4's power has not been used to the full yet. Optimization needs to be done, both in hardware and software. I believe we have a hardware that will go into full swing next year

That is true. Take for example the galaxy nexus was released two years ago and its going strong

I dunno why 1gig of RAM wouldn't be sufficient but i don't mind having the extra. And KLP rumors say that the new Linux Kernel will actually be substantially more RAM efficient.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

i usually have between 1375-1500mb free ram at any point of my usage(about 1650mb after killing my apps). i also use autostarts to prevent apps from starting up in the background, and i use greenify to tame wild apps.

I've seen about 1.2-1.4gb of my RAM being used. But there was someone who kept complaining that the nexus 4 would close apps even if plenty of space was remaining. i think that person even started a thread & posted videos to prove it .

anyone can fake that video. can even make it kill the background apps sooner when very little ram is used. all you have to do is change the memory management variables by raising them. plus, there are roms out there that do that too.

Yes. I feel like that nexus 4 kills certain apps or refreshes despite having enough RAM.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Using Elixer 2 widgets, I seen to hover between 1.2gb to 800mb free ram. I don't really close anything, pretty much just let it run on its own. Stock not rooted or anything. I have probably 50 give or take a few apps installed.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Ram use age is not only dependent upon the applications running... If you use roms like xylon or liquid etc there are options to show how much ram is used by applications, cache and one other thing which i can't remember right now.. So basically my ram use age in real life had always been nearly to 1.6 1.7 GB!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

is jelly bean optimized for 2gb?, Ive had apps close not crash and I wonder why if it needed the ram, would changing the vm heapsize help?
I checked and I usually have 700mb remaining.

My Galaxy Nexus ran perfectly with 1gb ram so its probably more like JB uses ram pretty efficiently. More helps tho.

That much RAM? you are on a custom Rom? Could you list your apps?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Maximum RAM used on my N4 was about 800-900 MB. Stock everything, with some services running like Facebook,Whatsapp,8tracks,Lightflow and a live wallpaper ..
As for the people wondering why some apps appear to "close" on their own despite having enough RAM. Its the app's fault, the code is not written well and does not advantage of Android's multitasking capabilities.

What happen to my phone? Apps that I'm using kill automaticly

I have been using stock Rom rooted jellybean for sometime. But one thing really annoy me. It's that,if I use screen filter,music player and browser together at the same time. It close the screen filter and music player after sometime browsing the web. Is this about ram issue?

I have exactly the same problem. System kills many apps when I'm using them. And I have deleted all useless bloatware. I guess I will have to reflash stock JB... You should try the same.

Or maybe it's a problem in adj value? I dun think stock value was that high..
Sent from my LT25i using xda app-developers app

Both. Adj tells to lmk what kind of apps to kill and minfree tells when to kill. With our phone (800MB available), we are always out of memory. Settings/apps/running value is a joke. It only tells how much memory is available if you kill apps that can theoretically be killed.
Most of user apps are using adj around 8-12. With lmk values in stock fw, these are killed very often.
This is what I found. But this memory thing is much more complicated (heap size, overcommiting, garbage collector, and who knows what else).
And I think, when the memory is divided into 3 blocks like we have, it also cannot be good.
Because of that all, Z already has 2GB.
