// pressure inherit the MemoryPressureListener interface and own a strong
// reference to a MemoryPressureListener object.
// Call Unregister on the listener in the destructor of your class or whenever
// you do not which to receive the notification anymore, otherwise the listener
// will be held alive by the observer service (leak) and keep a dangling pointer
// to your class.
