I have a simple list view with adapter. I create 10+ listviewitems dynamically. Then I scroll up and down again and again and again.... I can see that available memory keeps going down...
Where do I need to free and what? Note - there is an imageview - but in my test I have not used any images so it is View.GONE.
Also - with which tool can I profile the memory usage on the android. I have found yourKit,but how do I configure it for the android (I run the application on the device)/
