Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining when an application is sufficiently instantiated to be subject to a crawling operation. In one aspect, a method includes instantiating an instance of a native application that generates environment instances for display on a user device within the native application instance; monitoring requests for content sent from the native application instance to serving entities that are external to the native application instance; determining whether each monitored request has been fulfilled; in response to determining that the requests are fulfilled: determining whether each thread in a set of threads of the native application instance is idle, generating a load signal in response to determining each thread in the set of thread of the native application instance is idle, the load signal indicating the native application instance is sufficiently instantiated to be subject to a crawling operation.
