Default Thoughts/Questions on V6 Script

First and foremost, I love this. It has definitely saved my phone. However, I find it hard to find the perfect balance. I tried the gaming settings and ended up switching to the Mega Memory settings, which I've ran until today. Mega Memory was great, however it didn't play well with WidgetLocker (which is necessary due to the horrible stock lockscreen lag).

I recently came across a thread with some custom values (6, 12, 50, 70, 90, 110) and it runs excellent with WidgetLocker. No redraw upon entering my homescreen (actually, 1 in 15 maybe) - so now WidgetLocker runs fantastic. However, I have noticed my picture frame widgets (of my daughter) don't fill in all the way. This never happened with Mega Memory.

I currently have about 65-75 free RAM at any given time. My phone seems to be running solid, except I have the before mentioned issues with my picture frame widgets and lately I can't see any text when typing a text. This is random and happened before using the script. Does anyone know of a "sweet spot" that might fix all of these? I am tempted to bump up slot 3 from 50 to 60 or so to see if that does it, but I'm not sure if that is what controls the issues I'm having.

Any input/suggestions/thoughts would be welcome.

I'm rooted and supercharged as well. I'm also using WidgetLocker. I was using Launcher Pro Plus, but I was getting redraws pretty much every time the phone was unlocked. I've switched to Go Launcher now and I haven't experienced a redraws in over 2 weeks.

I'm now using Zep's megamemory 2 settings and everything is playing nice with ADW EX.

I'm using ADW also. Have you noticed any difference between your setting above, and the Megamemory 1 setting, which is supposedly a bit more conventional?

I haven't tried 1, as the 40 mb free turns me off. What do I know though. If my memory serves me correctly, the values are the same as the now deceased gaming option.

On an aside, and slightly related, I've given up on widget locker for this phone. Too many problems...

Well, it's hard to know which settings are best. And, of course those settings that are best for one phone's configuration may not be best for another, even on the same model phone. So I guess I'll stay with MegaMemory #1 for a while and watch my free memory and see if any more sluggishness arises. If it does, I'll give #2 a try.
