Title:
unity8-dash should be excluded from app lifecycle management
Status in “qtmir” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
STEPS:
1. Install the BBC NEWS app from the store
2. Go back to the apps scope
3. Open the bbc app browse about a bit
4. Click on a video link
5. let it play for a while
6. Cycle back to the scopes
Scopes then restarts
having a lot of apps open my unity8-dash gets contantly killed along the apps
if a certain OOM threshold is reached ... this appears like a system crash of
the UI (even though it is desired killing) from a user perspective ...
checking the oom_score_adj values of all running apps i see that the
dash has the same high value as all other open foreground apps:
...
11 7960 oxide-renderer
11 7963 oxide-renderer
11 7988 oxide-renderer
300 6170 oxide-renderer
802 12514 unity8-dash
802 6088 webbrowser-app
802 6873 webapp-containe
802 7425 webapp-containe
802 7910 webapp-containe
(the full log can be found at http://paste.ubuntu.com/8526308/ ) given
that the dash is one part of our core UI it should be excluded from
app lifecycle management (keeping the same oom_score of 10 as unity8
does) so that only actual apps get killed on high memory pressure.
