Is anyone seeing performance benefits when not encrypted? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On my Nexus6, running non-encrypted was night and day performance difference. On the 6p I'm not really seeing any benefit. Benchmarks are about the same in antutu, geekbench, and androbench. However it "feels" snappier, but maybe that's placebo.

i'm encrypted and i notice theres lag and slowdown compared to my old oneplus, which shouldnt happen. i'm wondering if its because encryption is causing that and is there a way for me to disable encryption?

yes, you can disable. You need to run a boot image that supports it, and a rom that supports it. Your device will need to be wiped.

speed difference after rooting?

hey guys,
I've just rooted my brother's Nexus one and I'm using it now. I like the feeling of having that much more ram at my disposal, but with cyanogen 5 it doesn't really seem much faster than unrooted. Have I done something wrong, or are the facts just that there's no significant speed difference unrooted to rooted?
There is no speed increase when "Rooting". All you are doing is becoming the Admin, or Root user. Cyanogen does have a bunch of tweaks in his ROM that do increase performance, and you can use SetCPU to overclock, increasing performance.
Note: In my experience, people who say it isn't faster after rooting are thinking of the Home Screen lag. Is this what you are talking about? If so, try Home++ (No root needed) or Desire R19-R21 ROMS.
perhaps its just me but after flashing the himem boot mine feels a lot more peppy, no slight studder every once in a while when doing lots of things

Performance: MoDaCo Lag Fix versus EXT4 hack

For a good few weeks, I ran my phone on JG1, and used the MoDaCo lag fix... I wasn't entirely happy with this "solution" maybe because I knew there was a quite strict limit with what could potentially be installed without undoing the lag fix, and then re-applying later - bit too much hassle for me...
However, there was no doubt about it, lag was well and truly gone for me. Very fast in the vast majority of scenarios.
Now I am on JM2, and applied EXT4 hack, and have used it for several days now.
When I had JG1 and the lag fix, I got a benchmark score of around 900 in Quadrant. With the JM2 and EXT4 hack, I now get about 1700...
Oddly though, the phone seems slower now than it did before, despite the much improved benchmark. Don't get me wrong, it's still better than stock, but there is some lag there, and not all of the animations / transitions are as smooth as they used to be.
So, JM2 + EXT4 lag fix looks better on paper, but in reality for me, the normal lag fix script seemed better performing, at least, in terms of the responsiveness of things opening etc.
Anyone else find this?
As a side note, I thought the battery life in JG5+ was meant to be better? Seems exactly the same, all things considered to me as JG1.
Yes, I experienced the same.
With the Modaco Fix the phone was flying! But I hit the 130MB limit pretty soon, so I had no other choice than applying and staying with the ext4 fix, which is indeed a tad slower, but still far beyond Samsungs original method.
And I agree to that, that the benchmark does not reflect the performance in real life usage.

Huge lag hangups when installing apps?

I'm not sure what the issue is here but ever since the new update, I'm getting absurd hangups of lag when installing applications. My phone just freezes and I can't do anything until the apps has installed... anyone else experience this issue?

I've had that happen on my Eris, so I just chalked it up to being "normal."
It's certainly far from being normal, it never happened on my Droid 2, Incredible, and rarely on my Droid. It's unacceptable that a 1ghz processor should struggle so hard, especially after being called the strongest processor. It seems whatever tweaks they've done severely affect multi-tasking in general because it happens all the time now that I think about it.
This should be fixed with froyo. But this is what the lagfixes are for. There is the OCLF n the market, run it at 700mb(u will c what I mean if u use it) it will not lag at all anymore. Then do quadrant. Its a little bloated but shows the true potential. Try it, post back
they call me...kick ass
I had this happen to me on my incredible too, but that was after I had it for almost 6 months.

I'm guessing you're seeing the effect of the poor performance that Samsung's proprietary filesystem offers. That's a disk I/O problem, not a CPU problem. The lag fix partially fixes this by creating a virtual ext2 filesystem, but not everything goes on that filesystem. The apps themselves are still installed on Samsung's filesystem, so the larger the app, the more "lag" you'll notice as the system waits for the data to be written. Hopefully they will change the filesystem with the Froyo upgrade, but I wouldn't count on it. Best hope for fixing that is probably a custom ROM.

I figured that might be the issue... can't wait for voodoo to make it's way here, I'm going to hold off of the other lag fix and just wait for voodoo.

Encryption Speeds?

What's the performance of the phone with encrypted OS and ExtSD? Especially bootup. Worth it or not?

The phone comes Pre-Encrypted, I doubt that an encrypted sd card will make much of a difference on system performance.

[Magisk Module] Ram Management Fix

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has tried the Ram Management Fix magisk module by crok. I was wondering if I could get your opinions about the module, is the difference noticeable? Does it affect battery life significantly? How much available RAM do you have before and after?

Well I have tried it on Los 14.1 but didn't find it any useful, it doesn't make any noticeable difference, may be the results be different in case of miui
Nah dont use it... it'll do worse than good. Tried and tested.
I used on redmi note 4.. And the phone got slower
