iPad ram management is bad and poor

I’m using iPad 6th gen. In the case my iPad got 2 GB of ram I don’t care about it CAZ apple devices have great ram management. But when I’m multitasking apps crashes and and I force restart every time. Also when I’m not using my iPad services or apps iPad using 1500mb of ram (1.5 GB) what is the reason ?

Also app loading time(gmail , safari ) is above 1.5 sec

Why my IPad7’s system is crashing when I open more than 14-15 apps at one time? Any time I open more than 14 apps my IPad 7’s system crashes. It started after I updated to the iPadOS 16.0 (20A5339d). I have 32 GBs of storage on my IPad. Is it a bug of optimization or my IPad’s storage is too small for it?

Apps reload/refresh after switching on iOS 15 I am using iOS 15.3.1. Every time I switch between apps, they reload. This is not related only to one particular app. Every app is affected: Youtube, Safari (refreshes page), all the social apps, banking apps, productivity apps etc. As a result, some apps such as banking app become totally unusable, because after you switch from another app, that banking app reloads and requires sign in again losing all your new transaction details etc. RAM is not an issue. I have checked it with some diagnostic app and it said I have 2Gb of free/unused memory. Background App Refresh setting is also irrelevant as I have tried turning it off and on. I have also done a hard reset of iPhone with no success. This issue persists on every iOS update. I have found somewhere a solution of clean install of iOS without using backup but that is my last resort. There must be a simpler solution or fixed by Apple in the next update as from my research I can see that a lot of people are affected by this for a long time now.

2 GBs of internal processing RAM is NOT a lot of internal RAM in this day and age when most current iPads now ship with 3 GBs of RAM and greater, now.

Do you have a boatload of potentially background running apps hanging in the iOS/iPadOS App Switcher?

How about a boatload of open and background running Web browser tabs?

Do you play a lot of iPad hardware resource intensive games on your iPad?
