[Tutorial]Sysctl and you, A guide to better preformance and battery life.

This would be a lot more useful if it were organized and not a wall of text

I tested and changing inputs in the settings works now.

I don't think that clearing the cache on every boot will lead to better performance or battery life, especially since you are recommending rebooting every day or two to clear up the memory for applications. The cache will have to be rebuilt on reboot, increasing the boot time, and increasing the amount of CPU cycles being used for cache writing. The Android system, is fairly intelligent about how it handles cache.

Same post is in the Liberty D2 Rom section.

Unless he posts different values for the two devices (which would be weird).

Thank you kind sir!

Fixed!!!!

So this tweak basically improves battery life and CPU performance? I've found Liberty pretty snappy as it is and between the extended battery and this rom, I'm getting some damn good battery life already. Can I basically accomplish the same thing by emptying the cache manually through Liberty mods every day or so? I know that this mod does more than auto-empty the cache but just wondering.

 

[Jboxen]

This mod actually emptys the vm cache less, which is why I said to reboot every day or run that script.

Vm cache and data cache are differen't.

 

[knivesout]

Ah, ok. Learn something new all the time here. When you empty the cache through liberty mods, that would just be the data cache then?

 

[Jboxen]

Correct.

Probably a stupid question, but does this mean the toolbox that came with 1.5 is now out of date?

Updated the toolbox in the android market.. bugs with sysctl should be fixed. If they are not shoot me a pm or something.

Technically, but the only difference is now systcl settings in the Liberty settings works.
