Default [Q] Reinstalling Stock ROM.

Hey guys, please only answer and keep reading if you are willing to help at a 100% rate. Don't need trolls here, but people who can actually help!

I want to reinstall my Stock ROM. I've been using Stock GB 2.3.5 since start, with Root, then I added CF Root b84 Fix. But its getting kinda laggy(I only have like 7 pages of apps, somewhere about 100+ new installed apps). But they are apps that only run after they are called, not background Apps.
So I was woundering if a clean reinstall would help my phone?

EDIT: Runnning Stock ROM 2.3.5 - Samsung Galaxy Ace.

Or should I update to a new version of GB?

------------

If I need to update to a newer stock ROM, how do I do it?

------------

If I don't need, how do I reinstall?

------------

Either ways, what's the best backup I could do in such a case? Use Titanium and back it all up? But I got a question, If i back it all up and restore it, won't it be impossible to recover everything, since i got Link2SD and memory is big because of that? If I put everything back it will say too small size. How will I arrange with that?

Thanks whoever answer all my questions!

Nuno Mendes.

Noone answered all my questions :P

Also, isn't CM7 more RAM eating and more battery draining? That's what people saying..

And again, that doesn't answers my questions ;p I want to remain on stock. Just dunno if I should update to 2.3.6 and HOW do I do it. AKA its on my questions above.

To clear your misconception,Free RAM has nothing to do with your device being laggy(Though reduces multitasking).Unless whole 278 MB ram is being used,no lags.2nd,Free ram is wasted ram.3rd,read sticky.Lots of guides are stickied which tell you how to use ODIN,Root,Flash and all this stuff.4th,yes a clean install of ROM will help.Try stocklite,completely stock.Or i suggest you to flash DDKQ8 but if you are paranoid about RAM consumption,then I should tell you even with no apps installed,200+ MB ram is used in.this firmware.
EDIT:-And trolls,you will only find in OT

OT? xD Whats that.

Well, I know there's guides, but guiding, doesn't explain. I mean, a guide tell you, do this and that, but doesn't explains what your doing, or what is gonna be the result. Like with Link2SD, what gonna happen if I backup? If my phone is laggy, a backup from CWM will keep him laggy too... The lag from what i'm having is when I unlock my phone, the slide to unlock is laggy sometimes, and if you unlock it laggy, the phone will stay laggy for a while. People say its because of deep sleep(made a thread about it), but phones takes some time to go to deep sleep, and this is not the case.

So I have no idea what is DDKQ8, im no programmer or knower about those stuff. What are advantages, or what does DDKQ8 means..

OT is off topic thread.anyways DDKQ8 is baseband version.I recommend you do a factory reset and install the apps fresh.Dont restore data using Titanium backup or CWM.

Newer version of link2SD has relink option, which cross checks apps installed on your SD-ext partition, made for those rom changes. Otherwise, restore backup with titanium and link again.

Also, with 100+ apps lag is normal, if installed on SD card a higher class SD card helps.

To stop the lag when you turn the screen on,

Go to cyanogenmod settings>performance>CPU settings or download setCPU
Then change the minimum frequency to 245
