Yes. I had read that, and I understand that the VM tries to stratify
processes depending on their function and keep my process alive as
long as possible. What I'm really interested in is detecting when the

how that relates to t

Thanks Dianne. Very helpful indeed.
For process lifetime, I don't think you're referring to the "entire

Activity (http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/
Activity.html):

Statics are statics -- they are global to the process. So their value will
last for the lifetime of the process, which is usually much longer than an
individual activity instance.

Um... you should fix your program. :)
You can't really rely on onDestroy() for this. For example, if the
user presses home to get out of your app, the activity will not be
