Google could introduce a new feature that will help Android better decide which background apps to kill
, it was found that Google has implemented a feature called Multi-Generational Least Recently Used , which is already in use on Chrome OS. MGLRU should help Android in making better decisions about which apps to silently kill in the background — it won't close apps that you frequently use or that are too important to you, so missing notifications or destroyed drafts should become a thing of the past.
With MGLRU, Google managed to reach a 40% reduction in kswapd CPU usage and achieved a decrease of 18% of out-of-memory app killings. What do these dry figures mean for us? Well, kswapd needing 40% less than it usually does means we will get more CPU time to run other tasks and apps. A decrease of 18% in out-of-memory app kills implies that it's 18% less likely for Android to kill an app that may be important to you.
There is no word if indeed Google will release MGLRU with Android 13, but when it comes, this new feature no doubt will offer a better experience for all users of the OS.
