Memory management issues

I'll just leave this here

I'm wondering what is the I/O scheduler that's being used, and the cache size if anyone knows...

Really who needs 16 apps in memory. I use 4 maybe 5 apps most of the time and judging by the test my OP3 should serve me just fine.

in most cases of every-day use that's true.
also, as in most cases 2GB of RAM is enough, they could just write 6GB in specification and install 2GB in the phone.

So, for the fix, you need to be rooted right?
So if i root, will I be able to use Android Pay?

if stock settings kill apps to leave more then a half of RAM empty, in which scenario all 6GB of RAM could be used at all? are upper 3GB meant for caches and buffers only?

anyway, does anybody have any experience how bad

ro.sys.fw.bg_apps_limit=42​

cripples battery life?

What happens if I remove that line?
