Call for testing: OOM adjustment changes
-
@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.
-
I agree.No issues at all when switching between apps
-
Can this be installed on rc channel?
-
@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?
-
@mihael hopefully
-
And how would you describe the benefits of this chage?
-
@mihael See the first post.

@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.
