In theory, this landed and is in rtm krillin image 112... but on 112 I've had unity8 get OOM-killed twice in the past couple hours.
The first time, posclientd basically freaked out (sorry, vague) and pegged the CPU, and soon afterward unity8 got OOM killed. For that matter, apport failed too, due to insufficient memory. The second time, media-hub went into a similar resource-hogging loop and unity8 got killed... and apport was again unable to get a useful result due to memory. So... not actually fixed? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379296 Title: unity8-dash should be excluded from app lifecycle management Status in “qtmir” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “qtmir” package in Ubuntu RTM: New Bug description: STEPS: 1.

Cycle back to the scopes Scopes then restarts having a lot of apps open my unity8-dash gets contantly killed along the apps if a certain OOM threshold is reached ... this appears like a system crash of the UI (even though it is desired killing) from a user perspective ... checking the oom_score_adj values of all running apps i see that the dash has the same high value as all other open foreground apps: ... 11 7960 oxide-renderer 11 7963 oxide-renderer 11 7988 oxide-renderer 300 6170 oxide-renderer 802 12514 unity8-dash 802 6088 webbrowser-app 802 6873 webapp-containe 802 7425 webapp-containe 802 7910 webapp-containe (the full log can be found at http://paste.ubuntu.com/8526308/ ) given that the dash is one part of our core UI it should be excluded from app lifecycle management (keeping the same oom_score of 10 as unity8 does) so that only actual apps get killed on high memory pressure.
