Hey, it's been a while since my last (and failed) release, so let's see if you can help me on this one.
As you might have guessed, I have compiled our latest kernel, and this is my own version!
Right now, people have reported battery life improvements, I'd love to hear what you think!
Changelog

V2.2 (New): https://github.com/XePeleato/ALE-L21_ESAL/releases/tag/v2.2
Instructions
Guide
I am going to try to help you to decide what settings you should apply
First of all, I recommend to install Kernel Adiutor.
If you prefer battery life:
Start Kernel Adiutor:
If you prefer performance:
Start Kernel Adiutor:
To conclude, I just mentioned where the settings are and some example values, if you love to play games you won't use the same settings as someone that just likes to read emails and use Google Chrome, find the settings you are comfortable with, and don't forget to set Apply on boot!
Now some screenshots of AnTuTu and 3DMark with Performance governor and Esalv2.1:

As you can see, even 3DMark detects that my score is higher than the average, try to beat that with stock kernel!
I hope you enjoy it, and please, I'd love to hear your suggestions!

I am going to try to help you to decide what settings you should apply
First of all, I recommend to install Kernel Adiutor.
If you prefer battery life:
Start Kernel Adiutor:
Go to CPU in the drop-down menu and set as governors PMC or Smartmax
Then go to CPU hotplug and don't enable many cores, since more online cores means more power used. You can also set the Endurance level to Quad-core
If you prefer performance:
Start Kernel Adiutor:
Go to CPU in the drop-down menu and set as governors performance (will set the CPUs to their max frequency)/ondemand/interactive
Then go to CPU hotplug and make sure to lower the load threshold, having a low load threshold will make your phone use more cores (if you experience lag while playing, maybe it's set too low, so use a wise value, do your testing.)
To conclude, I just mentioned where the settings are and some example values, if you love to play games you won't use the same settings as someone that just likes to read emails and use Google Chrome, find the settings you are comfortable with, and don't forget to set Apply on boot!
