Everyone knows SBSettings has the "Free memory" thing it does..

Any way to run this say, "Every 5 minutes" on its own?

And any reason not to?
 
You dont need to free the memory every 5 minutes.
The OS handles that part on its own fine.
If you want to do it once in a while try the removeBG toggle.

I see.

What I'm trying to get at though is just not lagging up as soon as I unlock my phone due to a lot of .. Anything.

I'm really dumb.. I think.
 
The removeBG toggle and this are not the same. Idk what it is but i frequently have to Remove BG and free memory to get back up to 340~.
 
Free memory is wasted memory guys.
Dont get OCD over it.

I know this ^^
I just dont like leaving my phone to sleep with all the stuff sitting in RAM. yeah its a useless pet peeve I have :D

Sometimes when my ram gets low using apples "multitasking" i have noticed basic phone function slow down a lil bit.

Everything in moderation right? But your right, free RAM is technically wasted RAM.
 
Actually I recommend, just as APJ says, it's very easy to enter a evil circle..

I have a diagnosed OCD and it's so bad that I need to free memory every 5 minutes. It's like there is some voice telling me to do it.
DO IT .. DO IT ... DO IT.... DO IT NOW.. DO IT.. Ye it keeps telling me.


I mean, it's not bad it's REALLY bad. Like the word bad isn't enough.
Miraculusley Bad.


Jesus christ stay away from this.
