Android scavenger working in my application

My application has a Stream Service, which runs in the background and listens for communication from a remote server. while the thread is running, I see a lot of dalvikvm actions in my LogCat. This is normal? or maybe this is some sort of memory leak sorting:

this is my thread run ():

@Override public void run() { startKeepAliveTimer(); try { socket = new Socket(host, port); if (socket != null) { Log.i("ServerConnection", "Server connection opened"); this.app.setConnectedToServer(true); serverManager.loginToServer(); } else app.setConnectedToServer(false); while (app.isConnectedToServer()) { app.getFacebookManager().refreshAccessToken(); BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader( socket.getInputStream())); String input; input = in.readLine(); if (input != null) { lastOnline = System.currentTimeMillis(); input = input.trim(); input = app.decrypt(input); Log.e("Server Reponse", input); serverManager.processData(app.convertToJSONObject(input)); } } } catch (IOException e) { Log.e("ServerConnection", e.toString()); } Log.i("ServerConnection", "Server connection closed"); }

this is my stacktrace:

UPDATE: after removing all the “new” elements from the loop, I used the DDMS distribution tracker and found that I have a lot of highlighting in the input = in.readLine (); something with the wrap () function inside the InputStream object ... how could it be? and what to do

This should not be a big problem - after all, this is not a mistake, but a GC doing its job.

However, in this case, a lot of memory is freed every second (And since the heap state remains unchanged (Allocated-Free), this also means that this memory is allocated every second. This will increase the battery consumption and cause delays in your application.

Like others, try creating objects outside of while , instead of creating and deleting them every loop. For example, change your loop to:

 BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader( socket.getInputStream())); while (app.isConnectedToServer()) { app.getFacebookManager().refreshAccessToken(); String input; input = in.readLine(); if (input != null) { lastOnline = System.currentTimeMillis(); input = input.trim(); input = app.decrypt(input); Log.e("Server Reponse", input); serverManager.processData(app.convertToJSONObject(input)); } }

The garbage collector is activated when you have objects that have been created and are no longer in use.

This means that any new keyword on your run() (including methods called inside the run that also have this keyword) will collect, will garbage later.

Some things are necessary for re-creation all the time (for example, threads), but some can be stored in memory (for example, a socket if its life cycle is processed correctly). You can dig inside startKeepAliveTimer(); ; serverManager.processData(app.convertToJSONObject(input)); and other methods to verify that they do not create material each time that can be stored during their service life.

But, despite all this ... it seems to me that the GC works, it's good, and it always collects and memory usage is pretty stable, I would not worry too much.

I agree with Budius. GC is left for android os. If you experience excessive memory consumption in your application, try changing it. Use the MAT analyzer to detect memory leaks. This video is about memory management. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CruQY55HOk ., Therefore, if you look at the video, you can get rid of memory leaks.

Also, if you have a lot of work, make sure you run them in threads. I suggest you use asynctask. Starting continuous operation in the user interface thread also causes a memory leak.
