Signed apk process killed due to lowmemorykiller on HD 8 Plus

I'm trying to pinpoint an issue with HD 8 plus devices while seeing if my application, both as a web app or as an android pwa apk, can run. Upon testing with the WAT, lowmemorykiller kills my application due to the performancetester taking up too much memory. Upon testing my apk, my app eventually dies as well thanks to the lowmemorykiller. Upon checking, performancetester is taking up about 1.5 gb of memory through WAT. Upon checking logs, my apk process is killed for only taking up 33 mb. Clearly this isn't an issue with my application so much as an issue with how HD 8 plus's handle memory allocation.

Logs belonging to my hd 8 plus where my application was killed by LMK:

Note that many processes are killed due to low memory aside from air.com.lexialearning.core5. Of these processes, air.com.lexialearning.core5 is taking up a small amount of memory in comparison at only 33608kB (or about 33 to 34 mb of memory).


Note that this is only happening on the HD 8 plus specifically?
