Check memleak by going to manage app - running apps - and tap the notification drawer multiple times while looking at your RAM.

It increased by 10mb but stayed under 400mb, with siyahvsync-this build i had alot of apps running in background, and ram was like 500-550mb but no lagg or sod ;)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Unexist6969:
yea it's now like 600mb
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
correct me if I'm wrong:

I think the JB mali build does have Vsync too since it's using the new samsung i9305 JB mali, and got no mem leak.

The Vsync patch build is called Vsync patch because it's the old ICS one patched for Vsync, but memory is leaking.

for the linaro builds, I think the OP don't feel the need to build them, because not so much were using them.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gustavo_s:
there is no screen tearing on mali builds, so yeah, i believe it is enabled.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
What build you on only Mali on stock has memory leak fix
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Unexist6969:
vsync with dorimanx it has mem leak but doesnt bother me that much
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Hmm, I say the same; correct me if I'm wrong here, but...

* The jb_mali builds have vsync mod too, jb_mali is (only) referring to the mem leak patch.

* The vsync is still based on i9300 blobs but the mem leak isn't fixed in those. The thing with vsync is you can run it with Siyah and some of us have devices that works much better with Siyah...

* Linaro is about code optimization but it's shaky at best in this stage, but parts of Linaro project is already implemented in AOSP JB... The Linaro build by mcm811 was also implementing the vsync patches.

Linaro builds were really faster.. Can a next build be with linaro?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
No, it actually differ from device to device. My S2 was absolutely not better on Linaro builds, but for the first time it's actually very good with the jb_mali build - vsync + Siyah was the best (ever) before that.

But Linaro is potentially good for all devices - parts even made it into Jelly Bean already, I heard researching it the other day. Very cool.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Potentially. Not the ones that has been made here, but there is a lot of potential in speeding up Android as a whole. As I understand it, the Linaro goal is to be absorbed into AOSP. But for now it's just experimental and better the CM10 dev's focus on what is important, not the bleeding edge stuff... :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] BlackRainX:
Did anyone noticed that latest builds have 787MB ram compared to 830-836MB Ram in builds before?

-edit

just readed the link, testing

edit2

just noticed that quadrant's 2d benchmark shows nothing, only fps counter on the corner, using hwcomposer2

same happens with no hwcomposer installed

huh what, nothing on blob hwcomposer neither.

for me opensource hwc or no hw is very smooth

blob hwc lags a bit on transitions.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] t-pip:
Mali only or Vsync as well.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ObihoernchenDE:
I can confirm this. It looks like 2D test is skipped but a result is shown. (jb mali build with no hwcomposer changes --> blob hwcomposer)

Edit: Antutu 2D test works fine so maybe a Quadrant issue nothing else.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
My guess Mali only because of kernel source
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pietpodlood:
awesome

thank you so much for this, it's by far the smoothest ROM I've had on my Galaxy S2, makes the phone feel new again... well done :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gustavo_s:
yeah, must be a quadrant issue.

i think the problem is that our gpu is powerful enough to render these 2D benchmarks with any hwcomposer avaible or without.

and on UI placebo betrays us.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
Stock hwc first

Then new open source hwc 2 on Mali build
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
Something like 250 points less at quadrant with the 2nd version of the open source HWcomposer, compared to the first one.

Nothing noticeable in the UI.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Bojcha:
If you ask me after longer testing today alsmost every build nightly, vsync, mali.. etc builds... i have some conclusion that things in last week goes down.

For example last 2 mali builds gives bad results in benchmark. In same time also Nightly builds, act very similar to mali. last few builds worse results.

Vsync build is indeed smoother and in same time gives bit better benchmarks, but it's very unstable. Meaning, that smoothness sometimes knoes to come and go. Also benchmarks.. sometimes good results and sometimes bad.

This is all with stock kernels and actually other kernels does not make any big difference... actually.

In regard to developers, all this memory fixes and vsyncing, etc.. i'm see like workaround. And builds act like that.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ghost-of-the-Sun:
I'm using the mali rom, and it is amazingly fast and fluid. Coming from Slim Bean there is a huge difference.

I've been on one of the first vsync builds and even if very good it wasn't as good as the latest mali is.

This is just amazing :)

Battery life is also quite good with stock kernel (I'd be curious to test Siyah, but I don't want to risk a black screen on boot)

Just a question: is there any way to edit navbar height and icons? It's not possible from rom options :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pHyR3:
Does the new open hwc mean an upgrade in performance or reduction/removal of memleak??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gustavo_s:
funny, here the best result on antutu was with hwcomposer2, this is why i don't believe in benchmarks at all.

1st - opensource hwcomposer2

2nd - opensource hwcomposer1

3rd - blob hwcomposer

4th - my rom+kernel combo
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
On mine, with the same kernel and ROM combo as you, HWC 1 gives me 6103 and HWC 2 5918.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] shadowcaster31:
not sure if any of you experience this but power widgets do not work properly sometimes.

eg. turn off wifi and it doesn't want to turn off but causes settings to hang temporarily. only way to "fix" it is to reboot.

is this a problem with the latest CM10 nightlies or just the JB-Mali version in this thread?

I'm using the vsync version (I think a poll to see which one is being more used would be neat :) ) - I still don't know which one is getting better performance and less memleak... as far as I know.. one has better hwcomposer and no memleak and the other has better sync which gives better ui....but memleak is present... am I right?

Quadrant shows nothing on screen on the 2d test..... as reported before...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
Thoses questions, as you can imagine, have already been asked and answered several times.

I'm pretty sure you'll find the answers by reading few pages back.

Ok, I'm in a good mood this morning:

JB mali uses the driver from the i9300 backported for the i9100 and uses the open source HWcomposer since this build. it's smooth, stable and no mem leak at all, but you can't use any custom kernel, only stock one.

Vsync patch build uses differents blobs, it works with the patched siyah so it can be slightly faster on your device (or not, we all know that the S2 are somewhat all differents :p ) but it got the mem leak.

the 2 others directories are older builds.
