Your values are optimal, Sir - you can use Turbo Boost e.g. with 112 MB.

Hey all
Just a question regarding intermittent lag.
As you remember when I was on bricked I experienced a lot of lag after flashing this mod, mostly during unlocking animations (weather, carousel) and when browsing through the app drawer. I flashed PYD-X and the lag is still there sometimes, although minimal. mostly occurs when opening an app (takes a couple of seconds to open) or sliding through the app drawer (it stops for a second then continues).
This does not happen with either bricked, PYD-X or SebastianFM without turbo boost so I'm pretty sure it's not kernel related
My question is this. Could this be caused by random reads/writes to other partitions on internal storage, like /data?
Something along the lines other apps reading and/or writing data to other partitions of the same storage, thus causing data stored in cache swap (like starting apps or drawing icons on appdrawer) to lag?
If so, can this be solved by selecting a different I/O governor?
Thank you
Thank you very much, Sirs - highly appreciated!
Yes, Sir, you can expect new versions from us. At the moment Harbir works on a new Aroma-installer and I am working on a new version of the script with a lot of new features ... both will be ... beyond words ...
PS: By the way - what do you all expect from the new version? Just lean back and think it's Chrstmas time - feel free ...
Just download the Aroma-Installer, copy it to your sdcard, reboot into recovery and flash it as you would do with a new rom. It also has an option for removing, if you don’t like it – but we think, that this option is useless …
To determine the right size for the swap files, refer to the point “How can I check the size of the partitions” of the Hints/FAQs section below.
Disadvantages of a swap file on your sdcard:
- A sdcard is always slower than internal memory
- You may NEVER unmount the sdcard or connect your phone to your computer, because you then just kill your swap file – it is the same as pulling out the Ram of your running computer!
Disadvantages of a swap partition on your sdcard a.k.a. HARD SWAP:
- A sdcard is always slower than internal memory
- You will need a separate partition on your sdcard
- You can connect the sdcard to your computer, but you cannot unmount and remove it without powering off your phone – you would kill your swap space immediately!
Disadvantages of a swap file in RAM - a.k.a. ZRAM:
- This reduces the already low RAM memory
- Leads to many low memory problems, like sense restarts and lags
Advantages of 98swap_<partition> compared to the methods above:
- It uses internal memory – so it is fast!
- This memory is not available to the user (/cache and /system) – so it does not decrease any space given to the user
- It does not use your sdcard in any way – so feel free to unmount and remove your sdcard whenever you like – also without powering off your phone!
Disadvantages of 98swap_cache
- None

★Can I use Turbo Boost?
Yes, you can! We have tested it with ViperS JB 3.0.2 , ViperS ICS 1.6.3 ,ELEGANCIA,DarkSense, bruce2728's CM10, Dragünkorr's CM 10.1 etc ROM's with Bricked v1.4 / v1.36, Sultan Kernel, PYD-X Kernel, Faux123' Kernal, Dragünkorr Kernel,Sebastian Kernel, etc. - You Name it !!! and even on Sultan AOSP kernel
--WORKs with NORMAL ViperS JB 3.0.2 ROM (NORMAL)
--Does NOT WORK with ViperS JB 3.0.2 with OLD kernel (for users with no/black screen issues)
CM10 users please use only 50 Mb Cache Swap
, use any size Data Swap Or System Swap
★How can I check the size and free space of the cache , data and system partition ?
Open a Terminal Program.
- type
to get the state of the cache , data and system partition .Code:df /cache or/and df /data or/and df /system
You will see some ting like this:-
Or
- open Android System Info (available in Google Play), switch to system tab and open the “Memory” section. The first point “Download Cache Max” will show you the size of the partition and the available free space.
★How can I check my current Swap Space(s) and Size(s) ?
Open a Terminal Program.
- type
to get the state of all swap spaces separately .Code:cat /proc/swaps
You will see something like this:-
Or
- type
to get total information of all swap spaces.Code:free -m
You will see some ting like this:-
★How can I uninstall Turbo Boost?
Simple – just reboot into recovery and flash Harbir’s Aroma-Installer again – it has an option to remove the script-
★How can I Disable/Enable the Swap file ?
Just flash the script again with the fantastic Aroma installer from Harbir.
or (for EXPERTS only)
For temporarily disabling/enable it:
- open a Terminal program.
- Disable/Off:
- Enable/On:Code:su swapoff /cache/swap/swap.img or/and swapoff /data/swap/swap.img or/and swapoff /system/swap/swap.img
(it will also be enabled again by the script by a reboot)Code:su swapon /cache/swap/swap.img or/and swapon /data/swap/swap.img or/and swapon /system/swap/swap.img
For disabling the cache beyond a reboot:
- Go to the init.d directory and
- Disable the script by
- Enable the script byCode:cd /etc/init.d chmod 644 98swap_cache_v300 or/and chmod 644 98swap_data_v300 or/and chmod 644 98swap_system_v300
Code:chmod 755 98swap_cache_v300 or/and chmod 755 98swap_data_v300 or/and chmod 755 98swap_system_v300
★How can I change the size of my Swap file ?
Just flash the script again with the fantastic Aroma installer from Harbir.
★Can I use 98swap_cache together with the ZRAM option of my Kernel / ROM?
THAT WILL BE QUITE USELESS AS OUR MAIN PURPOSE IS TO FREE UP SOME MORE RAM.
But of course you can use it with ZRAM enabled. In this case you can reduce the ZRAM option to e.g. 50-75 MB and use 50-75 MB for 98swap_cache.
The command(see above) will then display two swaps.Code:cat /proc/swaps
★Will it be Available for other Devices in the Future?

★Triple or Dual or Single Swap - which one is better and what is the difference?
We started to use /cache as swap space, because this space is not used on most phones. But on /cache you have only about 110 MB free space, even less with CM10.1 ROMs, and that might be insufficient for heavy usage. Our experience is, that e.g. with a Sense ROM, the phone needs about 150 MB of swap space. Now, this new version gives you the possibility to create two swaps, e.g. 100 MB in /cache and another one with 75 MB in /data and also gives you the possibility to create three swaps, e.g. 50 MB in /cache , another one with 75 MB in /data and 50 MB in /system . This is also sufficient for heavy usage.
★Is there a difference in performance to have one or two swaps or three swaps?
No. Two swaps will just give you the advantage to make better use of your free memory space, depending on your ROM.
★Which size shall I plan for the Swap Space?
We have very good experiences with Swap Spaces in total of 175 MB. This can now be made by two Swaps, e.g. 100 MB in /cache and 75 MB in /data or can now be made by three Swaps, e.g. 50 MB in /cache , 75 MB in /data and 50 MB in /system.
★My phone runs fast with Turbo Boost, but gets laggy again after a few days - what can I do?
This happens, when the phone needs all of the configured Swap Space - so the size is not sufficient in comparison to your usage of the phone. Just raise your Swap Space or configure a second Swap Space on a different partition - the new Aroma even supports Dual Swaps as well as Triple Swap.

To do this, we will need your help. At fist you have to install the script manually to confirm that it's working. In the second step we will need a few details of your phones to modify the Aroma setup. Let's start with the first step:
Installation instructions:
- Download the Aroma
- Extract the file 98swap_cache_v300 from the folder \swap\cache\50\etc\init.d in the Aroma
What to do:
- Enter ES-Explorer and:
- Go to ES-Explorer settings/Root settings/check (root explorer ,up to root and mount file as writable).
- Copy the script 98swap_cache_v300 to /system/etc/init.d
- Don't reboot!
- Open a terminal session and get superuser rights with the command: su
- Command: cd /system/etc/init.d (now you are in the init.d folder, where the script is)
- Command: chmod 775 98swap_cache_v300 (now the script has execution rights)
- Reboot
Now:
- Open a terminal session and get superuser rights with the command: su
- Command: cat /proc/swaps (shall show the new swap file /cache/swap/swap.img)
- With ES-Explorer navigate to /data/swap and look into the log file swap_cache.log
Please, sent delta-roh the logfile swap_cache.log via PM!.
If it's working, we have to do the second step:
The second step is, to include your Device in the Aroma; we need the internal device name and the mount point of the file systems. Do the following:
- Open a terminal session
- Get a superuser shell with the command: su
- Now the command:getprop ro.product.device
(that's the internal device name - I will need that name exactly)
- Now the command: mount
(we need the mount points from /cache and /data and /system; if you do not find them, just use the command "mount > file" - this will write all output to "file" - then send me "file")
Please, sent above info to Harbir via PM!
DONE!!!
If you have questions - feel free ...
