AntKeeper Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) I have less than 1GB of free memory so I wonder why does the app require 250MB (120MB of main memory for app and 133 MB for data). It is one of the biggest apps in my phone but there are no even any 3d graphics or any media. Map data? When I move the app to SD card figures are: Total: 293MB App: 57MB App (SD): 102MB Data: 134MB Data (SD): 108KB So it still occupies 190MB of main memory.

0 Mr. D Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 The app itself (including all images and scripts) is less than 15MB; for Android devices version 5 or below an additional ~50MB is taken by the Crosswalk library, required for the UI to render exactly the same as on the newer versions ("Domination: Earth" is a hybrid app for iOS and Android, so it runs in a "custom virtual browser" that doesn't really work well on older Androids, hence the use of Crosswalk). However, anything above 60MB is purely map tile cache (the more you scroll the world map around, the more tiles are cached for future use). If it grows too big - feel free to clear it from Settings -> Apps -> "Domination: Earth" -> Storage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 AntKeeper Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 I've cleared data storage and now it occupies about 70MB of main memory. That's ok now, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have less than 1GB of free memory so I wonder why does the app require 250MB (120MB of main memory for app and 133 MB for data). It is one of the biggest apps in my phone but there are no even any 3d graphics or any media. Map data?
When I move the app to SD card figures are:
Total: 293MB
App: 57MB
App (SD): 102MB
Data: 134MB
Data (SD): 108KB
So it still occupies 190MB of main memory.
