Developer Fraser Speirs has created a nice video that shows how iOS manages memory when backgrounding and multitasking.
The video is in followup to a post on his blog which addresses a misconception with iOS where users believe that clearing out their multitasking bar will improve the performance of their device.
TNW notes that there are five sections to Speirs' video:
● An app going from active to background to suspended
● Instacast HD requesting extra background time to finish a podcast download
● TomTom running indefinitely in the background
● Batman Arkham City Lockdown and Real Racing 2 HD competing for big chunks of device memory
● Batman Arkham City Lockdown forcing several smaller apps out of memory
Take a look at the video below...
