Is there an easy way to simulate low memory inside the emulator ? I'm interested to perform resource cleanups similar to this post
Go to Tools->Android->AVD Manager , there's something like pencil to edit your AVD click on that, then in the pop-up window click Show Advanced Settings and there you can change the RAM size.
o Depending on your computer specs, the recommended ram size is in the range between 512 MB – 1024 MB. Although you can give more ram to the emulator but an actual android device would normally have 512 MB – 1024 MB for ram only.
Emulator for native development with Android StudioIn the Android Studio toolbar, select your app from the run configurations drop-down menu. From the target device drop-down menu, select the device that you want to run your app on. Select Run ▷. This will launch the Android Emulator.
Invoke ulimit
command from the shell.
ulimit -Sv 10000
This will set current memory limit to 10 000 Kb, so that all apps invoked from this shell afterwards won't be able to access more memory.
