thx for the quick reply!! sadly no change +/-2mb
YEAHIII!!! i fixed it
Kind of a workaround but with the same effect! RAM dropped from
71.2 mb => 13.3mb!
This bug and the workaround was useful:
https://issues.adblockplus.org/ticket/257 - hopefully they fix it fast than it will be easier for everybody
Im using ADP at the desktop for years, so my ad statistics are pretty stable and from 50000 elements only some are useful (most are not, at least for me and im not willing to surrend humongous amounts of RAM for those).
I cut it down from
51.191 elements (only 1 list) to 615 (multiple lists). To figure out what i really need for my usage i looked at the desktop version of my ADP and sorted by the hitcounter. Im using it for years so the statistic works out really well, its much more than only exponentially decaying => few elements do all the work.

Those are the useful ones to save RAM (many hits, few entries ) and from them we get out the juice!!
- EasyList + EasyListGermany (51191 elements)
- EasyPrivacy (9282 elements)
- Anti adblock killer (882 elements)
(antimalware (14643), adblock warning removal were pretty useless)
Right click on the filter => show filter (ctrl+r) and then sort the list descending for number of hits.
Copy the elements (ex. started with 20k hits and stopped at around 10hits, the rest takes to much RAM regarding usefullness) - just make sure to not copy some empty lines (maybe it works also but i didnt, so its up to you)
Copy it to Editor: the blocks you selected will be each sorted alfabetically not by hits, its ok (Maybe here is some more potential to optimize depending how ADP works)
OUR PERSONAL SUBSCRIPTION
We need to get our personal list online: i only found one site that host .txt in plain format for ADP to download =>
http://shrib.com
Paste all those elements in it and say at the share/teilen button to "do more/mehr" => Target/Ziel: different / andere => Test the link / Link testen. There we are: our list is online.
PHONE
Shut off ADP (long press => force quit)
With our phone we navigate to "/data/data/org.adblockplus.android/files"
There we empty or delete the patterns.ini file and create a new one (its a huge file for deleting by hand)
We only need to put in our Subscription, as the old one uses 70mb+
This is now for example my personal list. There are a lot of different settings inside but it works also without and only those 4 lines (see
forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=12469#p76226)
Code: Select all
# Adblock Plus preferences
version=4
[Subscription]

Update filter twice! The name is still the old one, but inside its our personal one
==============
From the hit counter those 615 elements should block at least 99.9% in my case (depening on what sites you use)
