btw, there will be 3 versions of the my smittyv builds

First is just makefile optimizations here and LTO compression level 9 (not sure what difference it makes but thats why its a test lol), commit found here

Version 1- SmittyV-optimized-LTO-test.zip

Second version will have the same optimizations as the first but with the following cpu governors added- aggressive, gallimaufry, pegasusq, lazy, lulzactive

Version 2- SmittyV-optimized-gov-test.zip

And the third will be the same as the first but with an LTO compression level of 0 (again testing to see if it makes any difference)

Version 3- SmittyV-optimized-LTO-test2.zip

All made with the newest [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] ramdisk

Enjoy and try to test if version 1 or version 3 is faster/more stable etc, and if there is any improvement over the regular builds of dirtyv and see if you like any of the extra cpu governors in the second version
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] michierusama:
Omg im getting high xD thanks Metal.

GPU governors ... Im new to those.

Lmk is not yet fixed fully amirite?

It just killed poweramp while playing music (18h uptime, no problems before)

And to all using touchcontrol, just fyi because I was always told it doesn't use much battery:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dezful:
Here's how I rate the result in terms of performance: ver 2 > ver 3 > ver 1. Yet battery life is somewhat worse compared with DirtyV SR + Latest osm0sis ramdisk.

Testing Ver 2 with Pegasuq

Undervolted by 50+mv (little research involved in previous dirtyV), Regulator Volt Nephs settings

Max cpu 1.2GHz Min 190Mhz

gpu 512Mhz

KSM DynFsync Enabled, Zram 40mb with swappines 60

Min free Nephs settings

Thermal Throttling, MCPS Disabled

IO Shed. bfq RAB 4096

smooth as hell in cm remix, awaiting battery results...

THQ [MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION] for bringing pegasuq to smittyV, i always wanted it

Update : Buddy do u remember the smittyVmetal2 kernel u built, that crazy fast mutha ****in edition....ver 2 is just like that, crazy fast and also crazy hot without undervolting....kudos for spending some time for this amazing device.. [MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION] u rock man

The latest build is super smooth with Nephs settings and i have completely moved to Synapse thanks to [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION].

I only have this thing is when I am playing Clash of Clans the game lags after 2-3 mins of playing.

Things I have tried :

1. Using Default Kernel settings.

2. Using Nephs Settings.

3. Playing arounf with GPU freq in Synapse.

4. Overclocking the CPU to 1.4ghz

Is there anything I can do to reduce the lag.?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Btw [MENTION=4608636]bsmitty83[/MENTION] [MENTION=3685904]ak[/MENTION] [MENTION=2838735]aosp[/MENTION] this should be good for the gnex since we have 2 cpu cores right? Rather than one core running one thread for each task that should make both cores run one thread for one task thereby making the task finish faster or isn't that how it works?

-ftree-parallelize-loops=2

ftree-parallelize-loops=n

Parallelize loops, i.e., split their iteration space to run in n threads. This is only possible for loops whose iterations are independent and can be arbitrarily reordered. The optimization is only profitable on multiprocessor machines, for loops that are CPU-intensive, rather than constrained e.g. by memory bandwidth. This option implies -pthread, and thus is only supported on targets that have support for -pthread.

Once again about that lmk (sorry): but now it killed systemui while I was writing in whatsapp (using dirtyv rsr synapsed).

But there is no single lmk entry in dmesg, does lmk not write to dmesg anymore?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhonnyx:
[MENTION=3317173]büscher[/MENTION], I do have also LMK issues with DV, just opened browser, three tabs, one youtube vid and.... boom

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gabrielss:
I'm using the latest DirtyV with suspend trim enabled and I've notice that the phone gets really hot time to time... I think is related to suspend trim. Just keeping an eye in the counter in trimhelper, it always increases after this "warm episodes". In TricksterMod temp readings the CPU gets to 75ºC. I can really notice it when I have the phone in my pocket and it gets this hot :S

Is this normal or I should disable suspend_trim?

Thanks!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ILA:
Actually, parallelization is much better than you think it is because it isn't creating new threds but parallelizing the process itself. The difference here between creating a thread and parallelizing a process is that when you create a new thread, you flush the cache and the machine instructions and therefore creating threads is really time coastlly and would surelly decrese performance for simple loops (because it would take more time to create a separate thread than to execute the itteation) where as making a process run parallel tries to squeze as many tasks that use the same instructions and memory (i.e. loops) and run them on both cores giving each core and iteration a different view of the variable that is shared. So in conclusion, parallelism uses a bit more memory (because views are realised as copyes of the variable), but gives a hell of a lot performance over creating new threads... Ofc, schedualer here is everything because he is the one pushing the tasks from core to core if one core has more tasks than the other.

Hope I didn't loose you in the explenation... :)

[MENTION=3317173]büscher[/MENTION] regarding lmk

i m running smittyv metal ver2 with nephs minfree value and ur lmk script too, no prob whatsoever, been playing games as well as listening to music and multitasked with browser lot smoother and the downside is gets pretty hot with thermal throttler disabled

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
No whitelist but minfrees will always work.

I've had no issues running the default custom minfrees we've set in dvbootscript. wavedashdoc/Nephilim's are even more aggressive so I'd expect more issues there.

Also no issues with heat and suspend_trim. It only runs after the screen's been on over 20 minutes. Otherwise the counter shouldn't increase from what I understand. And the 2 minutes awake it takes to do it's thing shouldn't cause much in the way of heat.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] michierusama:
Hi

Where are the GPU governors on Trickster mod? I cant see the tunables... thanks. Im using the smitty-optimized-gov-test.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ILA:
There shouldn't be GPU governors since we just have the MIN and MAX step of the frequencies and nothing inbetween so that would be useless...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] michierusama:
Metalspring test build 2 says so and one user posted he is using pegasus governor.. So i dont see it on trickster settings. Hm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ILA:
Nope, Metal said that he added CPU governors and I think that the post under is a typo... If not, maybe he used the same GPU governors, but for the CPU... :) Like I said, it doesn't make sense to add GPU governors...

If you are still unsure, why not just install Synapse app just for this and see if they exist under the CPU or GPU? ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] michierusama:
Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Testing out SmittyV Metalv2 with PegasusQ on stock tunables. Running smooth, going to see how battery is for the evening and if all runs well I'll put together some custom tunables. At this point I am just looking to see if I can improve battery because using all my other settings with PegasusQ is running just as smooth as when I run them with Interactive and my custom tunables. I'll report back in a few hours to confirm if there is improvement on chrome lagging, so far it seems so but I just flashed this so I want to give it some time to settle before reaching my final conclusion.

I am using synapse and I can see lulzactive, lazy, aggressive, malligaufry, pegasusq and using it...

BTW [MENTION=2853378]Nephilim[/MENTION] long idle state affects pegasusq that one core goes offline completely and couldn't get up until a restart
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Here's my first test run of SmittyV Metal v2 using all my posted settings except I'm now using PegasusQ governor with my super-secret test governor control tunables:

This thing has been running super smooth and lightning fast for almost 6hrs now, there is substantially less lag when using annoying apps like Chrome as well. Have to leave it overnight to judge battery but I think these tunables lie nicely right in the middle of battery and performance. Still testing though but I'm pretty optimistic. :D​
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] michierusama:
Im glad you are here today yay!!! im Willing to try!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pvkiniyan95:
went back to interactive, after one night peagasusq kept one core at 350MHz and other offline, now when ever i choose pegasusq thats the spot cpu goes couldnt manage to increase the cpu speed there after....no idea what the issue is coz it ran so well in the morning but after 5hrs of idle time the governor pretty much changed entirely...i know this post is useless, just tell me if u get similar experience after long idle time

I heard that Galaxy Nexus is very good smartphone :angel:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Well I've had mine for about a week now and its pretty nice, plus development is more than I expected, even though it is still pretty new. In terms of performance I have yet to find anything that slows it down. Sense 6.0 isnt too bad and it actually very similar to stock android, as for battery life I manage to get about 5-6 hours screen time with heavy usage. Sound quality is awesome, just a great phone in general. I know I'd love to see an AK kernel for it though :P

Same here, I'm kind of at a crossroads with what to get next, development seems to be growing on non developer devices now that its easier to unlock most of them. I'm thinking the M8, One Plus One, Nexus 5 or I may hold out to see what the Nexus 6 brings to the table.

and also, chrome beta has a few more options available to change vs the stable release.

and that this ALSO works on desktop chrome(kinda like firefox's about:config page, but better cuz it gives you details on what each setting does)

DIY DirtyV/SmittyV AnyKernel2 Zip Creation

For latest SmittyV:

For any other build (instructions for on-device editing):

You could also do it on Windows or Linux by getting the zImage you want using my other Android Image Kitchen editions. Should be useful for anyone preferring AnyKernel ([MENTION=2838735]aosp[/MENTION]), or those holdouts running JB4.3, allowing them to actually run this kernel now. :cool:

Fixed some oddities with AnyKernel2 unpacking/repacking (at least) under newer builds of TWRP today. Already synced the changes to the DirtyV repo. So...

[MENTION=4452626]NeverSeparate[/MENTION] [MENTION=4183495]Funnydwarf[/MENTION] all that sh*t I told you should actually work now. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Especially considering how odd it is that on sense roms you get about 26k on quadrant but aosp roms drop it to like 9k so it seems like they might be missing something there lol (oddly enough, usable performance seems the same or better, and antutu scores are about the same or higher).

Still, like I said before, right now sense 6.0 is basically aosp with a theme and a few extra options, just to compare ram usage, on sense roms its about 700-800 mb used, on aosp its about 500-700 used (which when you have 1,800 mb ram total is a negligible difference).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
So basically what every one is saying is that sense 6 is good because its almost like vanilla android now , lol why not just use vanilla , or a badass custom ROM like Vanir ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
because why not? :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Its more or less personal taste whether you like the look of Sense or aosp better, since Sense 6 has pretty much all the options any custom rom has, plus its more tailored to the specific phone. Personally I'm running a Sense rom at the moment but have backups of liquid and vanir, and about to compile a version of vanir for myself lol. Its also worth noting at this point that aosp roms dont add any real extra performance over Sense 6 (I dont think its really possible to make it much faster and smoother than it is right now)

Battery not that bad with smittyvmetal ver 2 at stock settings
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] büscher:
yesterday a read into kernel scheduler and came up with some new tunables and also questions.

questions first:

[MENTION=4608636]bsmitty83[/MENTION] or [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION]: I'm not able to change "RT Period" and "RT Runtime" in Synapse. Is this intended or a permission problem?

and to the tunables:

I uploaded my Synapse profile if anyone likes to try my new tunables (still experimental - would like to hear your opinion) dont use it, wont work.... Also a little init.d script which I think causes the biggest boost if applied (systemui responsiveness). Won't hurt your phone ;) also most of the tunables stayed the same like in my scripts. Only max_freq is lowered because my phone doesn't like to be overclocked anymore, it literally dies on me if I do (back-to-stock needed)

save the Synapse profile to /sdcard/Synapse/saved_profiles and it will show up in the "backup-list" where you can restore it. You can also check what I changed by going through the Synapse pages before pressing the X.

For the new init.d script: rename, /etc/init.d/, chmod 755
