Ram management with marshmallow on Note 5

[brenz566]

Since Verizon updated the Note 5 to marshmallow, has anyone noticed any issues with ram management? Can you have 6 or 7 applications open without issues?

I believe Marshmallow has fixed the ram management compared to Lollipop

I never had any issues with RAM management on my Note 5 and I'm still on 5.1.1. I have had 10 apps opened at once and not once have any reloaded. Never had any RAM management issues with my previous Note 3 or 4 either.

Do you? Most of the time, when you open 5 or 10 apps, the one in the foreground is running, while the others are either sitting in RAM not running, or have been killed by Android. (Android apps have to always save any changes, so a killed app can be rerun with all its saved state when you bring it to the foreground, so it looks as if it was always in RAM.) Music apps are a special case - "close" one and the music keeps playing - because the app is actually running.

That's why RAM managers are bad for Android. Android does a much better job of managing its own RAM.

I agree and that's why I have never used a RAM manager app
