opening settings editor consumes app memory

sdk 4.0.7
eclipse CIQ plug in: 4.1.0.beta1
eclipse ver: 2021-09 (4.21.0) Build id: 20210910-1417
windows 10
watch face
minSdkVersion 2.4.0

CASE 1

wf starts, peak memory 88.0

[ecilpse][app settings editor] - open only window and choose project (no push any buttons), peak memory 90.0

CASE 2

wf starts, peak memory 88.0

[simulator][property data] - open only window (no push any buttons), peak memory 90.0

In both cases there is no calls for app.onSettingsChanged, settings data exist in memory so there shouldn't additional memory consumption.

Now, when you have e.g. 90.5 kB used from 92 there is an error "unable to serialise data" or "out of memory exception" if i choose OK in setting editor.

Solution is simple, Garmin should use the same things offerers developers and see how is difficult is to write something more than time/date and 2 notification with 94kB - 70kB for system things

The memory needed for app settings is something you need to consider when designing and building an app. 92k is actually on the larger size for a watch face, where the fr45 only allows 48k, and others, 64k.

Garmin itself writes many CIQ apps using the same stuff we use.
