Hi everybody,
My name’s Patrick Dubroy and today I’m going to talk to you about memory management for Android. So I’m really happy to see so
many people here who care about memory management, especially near the end of the day.
So let’s get started. So I’m sure you all remember this device. This is the T-Mobile G1. Hugo talked about it in the keynote yesterday. It was released about two and a half years ago. So, is there anybody here who actually developed on the G1? All right, impressive. That’s about maybe
40% of the room. So you may remember that the G1 came with 192 megabytes of RAM. And in fact, most of that was used up by the system. There wasn’t a whole lot left over for apps.
