Default Ram Manager - Possibly what every Nitro Users needs!

Was browsing the Android Forum on XDA and happened to run into a thread about a program called Ram Manager. Its getting pretty much rave reviews in the thread and market so I decided to give it a try. I don't want to get ahead of myself but my Nitro is seeming to run much better with it. Just thought I would pass it along to my fellow Nitro users to see if you guys think it makes your phone better. There is a paid and free version on the market at
https://market.android.com/details?i...dGlvbkZyZWUiXQ..

The thread on XDA can be found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1305060

UPDATE: Ram Manager requires ROOT

I have no connection with this developer and just want to pass a possible lag fix down to the community.

What the heck, $2 wasn't going to kill me, so I bought it.

Only been running it about 10 minutes but I've been opening and switching back and forth to my most commonly used apps and so far it's been pretty much instantaneous. So far so good!

ive got it running, seems ok. i think at this stage we're dealing in millisecond differences, lolz.

i think i saw a bigger difference in things when i installed juice defender ultimate and set it up properly.

You do not have to start it up after each reboot. It adjusts memory scheduling parameters and they are saved after each change made.

i installed it, ran it, restarted phone and its not running. so yeah i guess we have to start it everytime when the phone boots up, unless someone with more expertise can answer this.

Ram Manager changes memory settings on your phone (memory scheduler settings that prioritize certain appliciations and set the timeouts for applications before they are cleared out of ram) that persist through reboot. When you change your ringtone, do you expect to see a ringtone service running after every reboot?

You guys are so spoiled! The phone is lightning fast (as soon as you get rid of the laggy stock launcher). How much more fast do you need to be satisfied? :P

/me gonna try it now too...
