Task Manager is showing a RAM usage of 10MB when my application is running. I wanted to analyze it, but when I create a hprof dump it only a shows a total of 2MB. Can anybody point me in the right direction to where the other 8MB come from?

You can use DDMS for more accurate results. This difference might come from different queries. There is a difference between used and reserved (but free) memory. Maybe the TaskManager (which I wouldn't trust too much) shows the empty space and hprof also the reserved.
