Question

I have written an app which can talk to server via background service to send the request and get the response back. If I perform some operation (e.g send request and get response back) around 20-30 times, my application becomes very slow and I can observe it by pressing any button – the response becomes very slow .

If you continuously perform the same operation, after some time a pop up message displays saying “Sorry Activity of the application is not responding”.

How can I resolve this issue? It seems like my app consumes more memory, so how can I resolve it OR is there any tool available which can be pluggable with Eclipse and will display the reports of memory consumption of the App, and suggest the leak area.
