Thanks for the info! Good news for users in the same boat as you were.
The performance related settings are the second stage of troubleshooting right now, need to rule out rotation animations since they caused so many issues over the past few months, just to be sure.
FYI- Here are my performance related settings (I never get freezes
):
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Display>>Rotation Animations (unchecked)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Interface>>Render effect (no render effect)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>CPU Settings>>SMARTASSV2,480,729,Set on Boot (checked)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>Compcache RAM Usage (not set)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>Use JIT (checked)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>Enable surface dithering (unchecked)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>Use 16bit transparency (checked)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>Scrolling Cache (default)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>Allow purging of assets (checked)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>Lock home in memory (unchecked)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>Lock messaging app in memory (unchecked)
Settings>>CyanogenMod Settings>>Performance Settings>>VM heap size (48m)
Settings>>ADW Launcher Settings>>System Preferences>>Wallpaper Hack (unchecked)
Settings>>ADW Launcher Settings>>Scrolling Cache (auto)
Settings>>ADW Launcher Settings>>System persistent (unchecked)
Settings>>ADW Launcher Settings>>Home Orientation (portrait)
If these don't help, and you use the default ADW Launcher, I'll go through more of it's settings that may have issues.
