Thank you for you answer. I monitored the memory heap by Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory() and totalMemory();. When my app starts (free is 700k,total is 2.7M) When I take picture，the picture is 1.2M (free is 700k,total 5M) The log shows 07-01 11:31:27.062: INFO/dalvikvm-heap(395): Grow heap (frag case) to 5.020MB for 1337498-byte allocation If I do not call System.gc() before i load the picture it will throw the OOM exception as I pasted. I thought at that time I just to allocate for 1.2M. Is it means it is very dangerous to load picture ,I had better to check and release the memory every time? -----Original Message----- From: android-developers@googlegroups.com [mailto:android-develop...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mark Murphy Sent: Wednesday, July 01, 2009 11:38 AM To: android-developers@googlegroups.com Subject: [android-developers] Re: Is the limit of memory heap only 6M?

The available heap is 16MB. That does not necessarily mean that there is a contiguous 6MB buffer that you can allocate, depending on what else your application is doing. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books.html --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
