Hi everybody, I want to work on the Android's memory management to implement some ideas. Reading the Source > Getting Started from AOSP site, I found these notes:
*Note: The source download is approximately 8.5GB in size. You will need over 30GB free to complete a single build, and up to 100GB (or more) for a full set of builds.* *Note: It is also possible to build Android in a virtual machine. If you are running Linux in a virtual machine, you will need at least 16GB of RAM/swap and 30GB or more of disk space in order to build the Android tree.* * * * * My question is: I really need to build all that stuff to work on the memory manager (implement features and run tests)? 100GB seems huge!
