[Android-development] Warm application start time

[Лагнер, Сергей]

Thank you for advice

We are already doing our best to optimize QML loading time. We use Loaders
from QML side
and lazy loading for models from C++ side. But the application still too
heavy.
It takes 6 sec approximately to launch on Nexus 5.

Therefore we are looking for other ways to improve our app.

Now I'm care about warm start.

Lets consider the following scenario:
- I launch the app. It takes 6 sec.
- Press back and see a home screen
- Launch the app again in a second. And again it takes 6 sec.

That is mean that all resources were freed and second start was completely
from scratch.
I wonder if I could speed up the second(warm) start from java side.
For example, is it possible so save preloaded native libraries until the OS
has the real lack of memory?
