Is there a way to programmatically free memory consumed by a web
view? My
app is designed to run from boot to shut down, meaning the user
seldom quits
it and so frees memory. It embeds a simple WebKit browser, which
quickly
consumes an unacceptable amount of real memory. So I need a way to
free it
without quitting the process. Is this feasible?
As long as your application doesn't keep touching those pages they
will become candidates for page out if they system feels it need to
do some paging and they wont get paged in unless you use them. So in
general you likely don't need to worry about it.
Anyway the folks on the webkitsdk-dev list may be of more help on
what caching you could disable, etc.
