today, i tried to multitask as i would have done the previous script. running on the same clockspeed as i usually do...and things aren't as smooth as before. in fact, i dare to say, not even close. browsers become VERY unresponsive after 3+ windows while availability is online and things are generally slow and unresponsive compared to before...
I have not tested with the values changed, but I can tell this for very sure. This speedpatch is not so impressive as the older one. I could see the sluggish behaviour of the maemo which was there before the very first speedpatch. I couldn't even open 8 simultaneous tabs( 4 web browsers + 2 conversations + HAM + XTerminal ) before which i could find the mobile unresponsive. I assume that the change in the values is the major change in this patch and so voting to delete the values.
what were the added values supposed to do? if I were to decide between extension of hildon-home life and general fluidity in multi-tasking, i'll choose the latter...
with the previous patches, i could multitasking fluidly almost without any hiccups. with 8+ browsers, all accounts online, FAM, tweego, facebook, music player... SMOOTH. that's better right?
Did you test this benchmark with my values? With my values it's faster. The cpu.shares values gets overriden.
I prefer testing it in real-life usage... it could have good values there... but my experience in using it I think is a little bit more important. I still stand true to what I said before this and indeed the multitasking is not as fluid as before. As to what constitutes to that effect, I'm honestly not sure. All I know is, before the newest patch, it was fluid, now not so much. It's OK, it's not COMPLETELY horrible or anything... but noticeably slower and NEARLY caused my hildon-home to crash a few times... had to go easy on the apps open
