        How is this getting upvoted, zram is a ram compression technique of a few % and has nothing to do with preloading strategies

        Edit: mb, apparently its behaviour now also includes general purpose cache. Back in the day, I remembered that it would only help for low ram devices to make better usage of existing ram.

    Oneplus the industry leader in providing massive RAM, then making sure you can never use it lol

    How about fixing their current ram issues. I have tons of free ram so stop killing all my open background apps.

      This happens on most Android phones, including my Google Pixel with 8gb of RAM. I noticed that it starts doing this when battery drops below 50%. Which is weird because it surely takes more resources (and thus drains more battery) to cold start an app every time instead of just keeping it in memory (provided that app doesn’t do anything nefarious in background which is easy to detect). There is plenty of RAM for that.

        You want fun:

        When you open the z fold, all your applications are killed.

        It takes 5 seconds to get to the home screen and start opening them again.

    We don’t need ram for games. I’ve got Xiaomi 12 with 8GB ram. The damn thing closes any 3rd open app. Just get the memory management working well.

    This is the same company that, by default, allocates some of your storage space as “RAM.”
