Help Internal Memory - Very strange

I am well aware about the Desires low internal memory, but I have never really had a problem... until now.

Basically, I have about 30 megs of internal memory free. Then, all of a sudden, I got a low memory message in the status bar. I went to memory settings and saw that the total space available was about 500kb.

Shocked I looked at my various apps using the app management tool, and saw that Dolphin HD has increased in size to 40megs. I cleared the catch and everything returned to normal.

This has never happened before, and I have been using Dolphin since release. It is already set so that any catched data is saved to the SD card, so this shouldn't have happened to start with.

Anyway, next day same thing is happening again, Dolphin HD is growing in size to 40megs. Again, I have to clear the catch.

Why is this happening when it never did before?

Click to expand...

its possible that its a current bug. delete data, force stop and reinstall. if that doesnt fix it its dolphin
 
Im going to see if it happens again. The only thing I have installed recently is the Swype Beta... but I don't see how that would effect Dolphin.

Thanks for the advice tho...
 
My 2 cents worth, swype memory size is quite big. Along with market, maps and angry bird. Remember to clear those cache too. Got an app that helps to clear all cache.
