a small app that does these scripts would be awsome! put a shortcut on your desktop or even combine with alarmed so that every day the script will run at lets say 4 am in the morning clearing everything.
maybe a thought!

this was the reason why PR1.2 was delayed
i logged a bug about this a long time ago

thanks for not fixing it nokia.
Comment 41 is about the python/memory issue. There are clearly a lot of different issues involved in that bug report, so if that isn't the particular problem you are having, obviously removing python widgets won't help. It may be that i didn't even notice the hildon-home cycles issue prior to PR1.2 because of the more overwhelming memory sink of python widgets.
With Recaller and Personal IP widgets gone, it's gotten a lot more possible to have week uptimes. Gonna try dropping caches...thanks for that noipv4.

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?

Try these steps too.
http://www.linuxinsight.com/proc_sys...op_caches.html
Writing to this will cause the kernel to drop clean caches, dentries and inodes from memory, causing that memory to become free.
To free pagecache:
* echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
To free dentries and inodes:
* echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
To free pagecache, dentries and inodes:
* echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
As this is a non-destructive operation, and dirty objects are not freeable, the user should run "sync" first in order to make sure all cached objects are freed.
If dropping cache resolves the issue then is it possible to run it as a cron job every 24 hours or something so that we dont have to struggle with this issue...

The net result after it is that the system is _slower_ instead of faster, as it will have to fetch all files from the NAND/eMMC again.
The option is completely useless for any reason other than hardware related (need big physically continuous buffer for XXX operation, need to reduce dirty/cached size because I want to s2disk*) or benchmarking.
*And it's not recommended for recent uswsusp, tuxonice.

I blame the browser. System starts to struggle once a picture heavy site is loaded. There may be a memory leak. People scoff at Android but forget that its JVM based architecture averts memory leaks via garbage collection. A real modern platform albeit running on an archaic Unix based kernel. Nokia need to fix this mess.

CAN SOMEONE MAKE IT INTO A APP FOR WHEN I TURNON OR RESTART MY PHONE???????????????????????
sudo gainroot
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
killall hildon-desktop
killall hildon-home
