Correct. It is. However, using memory and actually running are two different aspects. Last I looked, GO runs a service with "Push" in the title (as in "SomthingPushSvc" or the like, don't remember the specifics OTTOMH). That service is running, and it may be whats consuming the memory. What its waiting for to be pushed to it, I don't know.
I wish thee was a better task manager that would show services by APP and that we could disable (not just kill) without having to root the device.
I don't fly with GO, so I uninstall it until I need to do some setting (like IMU or gains) that Litchi can't.
