    Default Monitoring memory

    Is there an app that will monitor and log memory usage by apps?

    Here is my problem: I want to be able to determine how much memory a couple apps are using. One is Dolphin. If I start Dolphin, then go to TaskManager or Settings - Apps - Running, neither show Dolphin running. Sometimes it's been killed by the aggressive garbage collector, but other times it stays running.
    I would like an app that will log running apps and log their memory usage every 5 seconds or so (yes, I know, I wouldn't run it for long).

    Any ideas?

    Nothing, huh? Ok let me change the question then. Those of you who say your browser takes 50mb of RAM, how are you determining this? No matter what I do, neither the stock browser or Dolphin show in running apps or task manager.

    You mean in settings,apps you can't see how much memory you've used when you look in dolphin browse??

    I'm speaking of RAM the app is consuming while running. Not storage the app is consuming just by being installed + cached data, etc.

    go to settings then apps and check under running. Then at the bottom you can touch used or free to toggle between the two.

    I answered in your other thread Mikey, but for anyone here, OS Monitor is great for this.
