There is lot of questions on the site similar to my question. but none of them provides exact solution to problem.
I am developing one application which have huge amount of imageviews in one activity and I am drawing lines using canvas.
in onDestroy method , I am traversing through each element of an xml and if its an imageview I am removing its background by calling setBackgroundResource() and setImageResource() method. and drawing lines around edges of an imageview using path to make it feel like a square progressbar.
my code calls this class maximum 20 times a second. and in that code I am creating a maximum of 5 new Paths object and drawing a line for each call.
tested application in several devices of different configuration. it runs well without any crash. but crash analytics reports an issue without much detail in it.
android.graphics.Path.finalize() timed out after 10 seconds
android.view.ThreadedRenderer.finalize() timed out after 10 seconds
android.os.PowerManager$WakeLock.finalize() timed out after 10 seconds
these two same crashes on different object.
I have tried to figure out problem in my code but it didn't help me because there is not much details in crash logs and even on internet.
all I learnt about this issue is it is caused by Garbage Collector pauses. if application is in background this issue may arise.
there was several calls of System.gc() in my application , I removed all those but crash is not reproducible here in my environment , I can't test it too.
what might be causing this issue? is it System.gc() calls that causes this issue or the path object that I'm creating for progressbar.
