        @status_active Opening as many apps as possible is a good start. What shouldn't happen is that the topmost application gets killed before the others.

          @fredldotme Topmost application meaning the current active or foreground app?

            @kugiigi I would say the most memory consuming app

              With this change switching between apps is much snappier. I couldn't find any regressions.

                    @mihael you can try but it's untested. As of now rc should roughly match what devel pprovides

                      Is this something that in the end (after tests) will land in the image?

                              @fredldotme Right now, on my Pro5, I have many apps setup in UT Tweak Tool not to be supressed by the system. Yet, I only use Call, Browser and Gallery opened (stay on) all the time. I also use 2GB of swap. Still, from time to time, Unity8 reboots - and I guess this is because ram is limited (3GB).

                              Do you think this mod will improve the behaviour described above? - like would it still reboot because of a ram limitation or no more reboots?

                              Thank you for all your work and time!

                                @mihael no, this probably won't change much.
