I wouldn't think as much about onStart() as onResume().

Stuff that you want ONLY going on while the activity is in the
foreground would be initialized in onResume() and cleaned up in
onPause().

Stuff that has little ongoing cost and therefore can remain set up
even while the activity is in the background can be initialized in
onCreate() and cleaned up (if needed) in onDestroy().
