Ahh, ok, thanks. I was wondering if it was something like that,
but I wasn't quite ready to make that (educated) guess. :-) So when
developing a live wallpaper, for example, and getting advice to check
its usage of RAM, CPU, and battery, there is no valid way of doing so,
and the advice is therefore equally invalid? Or is even an approximate
number on those valid?
