Default Best for apps to run off device or microSD?

I have all my apps backed up to my sd. But was wondering if i should move them to my card and have them run off the card or device. Also what app would move them all over at one time? Seems like the built in client only does one at a time. Currently i use app control to back them up.

The SDcard should be slower than the phone storage, so I would keep you most commonly used apis on the internal storage. I really can't imagine why you'd need to move them all off anyway. Where you running out of storage? It probably won't be that noticeable on the G2, but on my old G1 there was a big difference.

ya i agree - tons of space on the G2. i dont have anything running on SD now. I used to have a bunch running on my SD when I had G1 and even the N1.

if you really do want to though, i run apps like Astro File Manager, and Rock Player on my SD because they call out files on the SD card anyway.
