Do I really need to run the SuperCharger to have the best experience?
What exactly does it do?
Thank you for this great rom.
I'd like to know this too. Read around about how its a memory manager and supposed to make things snappier. Ran the script and went through all the options and rebooted. Ran again and it says I'm only 50% supercharged. Noticed that Chrome scrolling wasn't working as well after running it so I reinstalled without running script. I'm probably not doing something right as I've never used supercharger before.
Having the same issue with the supercharger script, it doesn't charge up 100%, have tried numerous times but not avail.
Running the Supercharger should definitely improve the overall responsiveness, performance and multi-tasking of your tab.
Basically, this script fixes and reconfigures the OOM grouping, priorities and lowmemorykiller values. It will completely change the way your device manages the ram.
Without it, your device's memory management is configured kinda like a Linux pc when it shouldn't.
This will incredibly reduce launcher redraws (see those ugly traces an icon leaves behind when you drag and drop it moving quickly ? That's the redraws).
About the "50% Supercharged" issue :
This issue is not really one, you actually get 100% of the supercharge, even if the script shows 50%.
In fact, ics and jb don't get their ADJ permissions from the build.prop or local.prop, as Gingerbread and older versions used to do. These permissions are now hardcoded directly into /framework/services.jar
So in fact, the other 50% of SuperCharge you get on ics/jb come from the patched services.jar (the patch consist of modifying the smali code to rearrange priorities, especially launcher priority).
Do not worry I patched services.jar in v1.3, so run the V6 SuperCharger Script and you'll get all the improvements you can get from it.
Here's a quote about this from Zeppelinrox (author of that awesome script) :
So the script alone can only give you a 50% SuperCharge Level with only the V6 SuperCharger script.
Patching services.jar gives you the other 50% along with a SuperCharged Launcher!
I recommend you guys head to
Zeppelinrox's original thread if you wan to learn more about the V6 SuperCharger Script.
Is this compatible with the ExtSd2InternalSd mod?

cause it runs by modding the int.d will it overwrite the nexus 7.7 int.d tweak?
You can use the script in this thread, no problem, it should not mess up with the init.d scripts that are already there, it should only add a script that will run at each boot (this is what init.d is made for) that will swap extsd with internal sd, leaving the scripts that are already into init.d intact.
Didn't test it though, so if you try, please make sure to share the results with us.
Cheers.
