in the images I can see that not even 1 min and already consumed 2% battery, I do not want to imagine when you have whatsapp, twitter, ....

Do you have some configurations to maintain good performance? disable fast dormancy, use a specific theme, some compatible kernel?

On the other hand I like the slim projects I would like to keep it more active than its later version Slim6
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/rom-slimrom-marshmallow-alpha1-t3248056
I did not make changes to the kernel. The settings are the same as those used in LineageOS.
While on fast consumption, the device was being charged by USB and when I do this, when disconnecting, the percentage of the load goes away fast. The charge lasted normally after a normal charge :)

Guys, I used the weekend to try to enable root mode with superSU in the builds, but I did not succeed. Since I will not have time to investigate why (another year of studies to win the ENEM and the SISU), I will try as soon as I have time, but no promises.
The monthly compilations will be waiting for you ;)
For those who do not know what the ENEM is: it is like the SAT exam, and the SISU is the students' competition x the number of vacancies to enter the university.
