Abstract
Ideally, you want your activities to be downright snappy, so your users don’t feel that your application is sluggish. Responding to user input quickly (e.g., 200ms) is a fine goal. At minimum, though, you need to make sure you respond within 5 seconds, or the ActivityManager could decide to play the role of the Grim Reaper and kill off your activity as being non-responsive.
