Abstract

A memory cleaning method and apparatus, and a terminal device are provided. The memory cleaning method includes: acquiring information about application processes that occupy memory of a terminal device; determining, according to behavior characteristic information of using an application by a user, that a first application process in the application processes is an application process for which cleaning is not performed; and performing memory cleaning processing on an application process, except the first application process, in the application processes, so that it may be implemented that memory cleaning is performed according to the behavior characteristic information of using an application by the user and operating performance of the terminal device is improved. Furthermore a response time required when the user starts the first application process again is reduced, and an experience effect of using the terminal device by the user is ensured.
