option 1: complain to me that Simple LMK causes freezes (guaranteed effective strat) option 2: find a way to make that dying process get the memory it needs ASAP so it can go die option 3: complain to me that Simple LMK causes freezes enough for me to implement option 2

...in which case, the process you killed needs to have its memory allocation satisfied so it can make its way back to schedule() and process its SIGKILL. but you're low on memory, so there's no memory for that dying process to take! wat do??

let's say you're running real low on memory and you decide to kill a process to free memory. ez, right? not if the process you killed is stuck in the kernel trying to allocate memory...

Naptime is an app I've been nurturing over the years because I want max power savings when the device is out cold dozing. Pretty much everything works even if you're unrooted too, so that's a major win. I've been pouring updates with new features frequently too.
