Android developers are urged to prepare for the adoption of a 16 KB memory page size, offering performance gains of 5-10%. This is a pivotal upgrade.
Google has introduced 16 KB functionality as a developer option on Pixel 8 and Pixel 9 devices, with widespread support expected from major Android OEMs.
Transitioning to the 16 KB architecture promises to be much smoother for developers than the previous shift from 32-bit to 64-bit, particularly for native code.
Comprehensive guidelines and resources have been provided by Android’s engineering team to assist developers in adapting their apps for the new memory page size.
