Nenolod's Performance Improvements

[alershka#AC]

I was reading the bootloader FAQ that has been posted by Nenolod and I noticed he recommended some edits to improve the overall performance to Android phones.

how to improve user performance on android phones ? nenolod.net

From ADB:

$ su
# mount -o remount,rw /system
# echo 'kernel.sched_latency_ns = 600000' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
# echo 'kernel.sched_min_granularity_ns = 400000' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
# echo 'kernel.sched_features = 24188' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
# mount -o remount,ro /system
# sysctl -p
kernel.sched_latency_ns = 600000
kernel.sched_min_granularity_ns = 400000
kernel.sched_features = 24188
# exit
$ exit

Has anyone run these on a Droid X? I'm happy with my performance (overall) but at times things slow down a bit and I'm wondering if this will help that out.

the commands don't seem to work right when i tried them, i get errors on the kernel commands about them not being found...?

This blog entry was posted before the X was even released so I don't think it'll work for it. It also seems to be changing the kernel settings. I haven't tried it and don't quote me on it but he also said in a comment on the post that it should work with any 2.1 android device so who knows.

I only mention it because his readme for the bootloader unlock faq

http://nenolod.net/~nenolod/sholes/README

he has the following:

Q: When can I haz unlock? Must haz 9.001THz overclock ROM!!!
A: NVRAM dump tools will happen first, then we will release an exploit.
(In the meantime consider that most actual performance issues are from
the scheduler and fixing them has already been covered on my blog,
which you can do just by rooting your phone.)

I was wondering about this too, namely, is it still relevant with 2.2 out?
