Go to Engadget.com and scroll down slowly. U see that lag ?I flashed back a stock boot.img and tried again, it's much better. ?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Sultanxda:
Engadget is smooth for me on Firefox. Also, if you tested the stock boot.img right after it booted up without giving it time to settle down, then your CPU was probably running at its maxfreq when you tested it, which isn't a fair comparison.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] avetny:
Damn on stock its also lag. I'll try fire fox and chrome beta.

Thank you Sultan. Love your kernel. My favorite one.

Thank u sultan for amazing kernel

i dont know how youve done it [MENTION=4800121]Sultanxda[/MENTION] but this is the best kernel ive used

ive tried others and this comes out ontop everytime, smoother, faster, app loads quicker.

i am impressed, i was on kirisakura before this and decided to try Sultans it feels like you breathed new life into my phone.

apps have never opened faster, my phone has never been this fast before

well done, sent some beers your way :thumbs:

2.8 GHz either does not work at all or can only work on a single core in the big cluster. For all cores in the big cluster, stock goes up to 2.6 GHz, which turns out to run slower than even 2.4 GHz on some devices due to quality control issues it seems.

No lag here or any hiccups on March 27, 2019.

Most of these guys who are saying stuttering

Are you on stock ROM or custom?

March 27, kernel is so fluid

Very buttery smooth. Although battery life could be better but it's good.

No issues. This update made phone amazing. Stock kernel caused issues like lagging stuttering.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jbarcus81:
My phone is performing fairly well, great battery life, performance, etc. Last night I went to bed while charging the phone, and woke up to find my phone said 3:20AM, I thought; why the hell am I up so early?? Well, it was actually 8AM and my phone was frozen. I tried to get the logs but failed ... hasn't happened since and updated to the latest build in OP .. Noticing hangs while playing games, nothing specific, just any game really. But only while gaming. Regular phone functions are superb. Aside from the strange lockup last night, zero issues. I just wish I could figure out what had happened, but I had to get ready for work in a major hurry. Running Stock March.. No other tweaks.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] LimitsX:
I need to correct something.

March 27 kernel has amazing battery life!

I just checked my phone

I'm at 5.5 hr screen on time with 40% remaining.

And I used battery hogging apps lol.

Amazing. Phone is so smooth

Thank you!
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Sultanxda:
Which kernel specifically did you experience the freeze with? The slmk tests I've been posting can do that, but the build in the OP should be fine.

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 1002776470@qq.com:
When I run pubg in your kernel, your kernel will increase the temperature due to the high frequency. This seems to cause the gpu to be limited and cause jams, but the frequency after entering the game in the sultanxda kernel seems to be locked at 2.1ghz. This makes the gpu at a high frequency, which is my discovery.This comes from Google Translate.

New build up in the OP with Simple LMK removed, since it's not stable yet it seems. I will keep posting Simple LMK test kernels in the thread though; stay tuned.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] geeksammao:
Just be curious, what's the adavantage of slmk over default lmk? I think the idea of userspace lmkd can be promising when it's properly implemented, is is really necessary to build a totally new kernel space lmk?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Sultanxda:
It can react to running out of memory much faster than userspace lmkd, which allows it to wait until memory is totally full to start killing. The issue I have with lmkd is that quite frequently when there is a sudden need for memory (e.g., opening camera app), there is a long delay before the memory need is satisfied. This means that certain activities that quickly ask for a lot of memory will take a long time to get that memory, which results in issues like the camera taking a while to open sometimes and frequent long delays while multitasking. Simple LMK also does not start killing for no reason (which lmkd does when it thinks memory is low), and instead waits until memory is full before it starts killing, so memory utilization is better.

But memory management code is really difficult to get right, hence why Simple LMK is still not stable after months of work (though it's close to working).
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] LimitsX:
Does this have the improvements you made to march 27 kernel, besides the Simple LMK?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Sultanxda:

Hey,

since you seem to be very concerned about fs/mount options, please stop spreading misinformation. It´s currently set to =on since release 2.1.3.

I replied to you already in my thread and explained why this flag was set to =off. If you can´t remember take a look here: https://xdaforums.com/pixel-3-xl/de...ra-1-0-0-pixel-3-xl-aka-t3864563/post78779713

f2fs background_gc was replaced with rapid GC by [MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION] in kernels before 2.1.3! that´s why the default flag from f2fs was set to =off on previous releases. However that doesn´t mean there was no GC at all.

In the release post of 2.1.3 (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79190516&postcount=1261), I explicitly mentioned the removal of rapid GC. It´s logical that now the standard GC from f2fs is used again.

and please be more specific. GC was never completely removed from my kernel, it happened just in another way. Posts like the one above are incredibly confusing to everyone, because it sounds like I removed GC from f2fs, which I certainly never did.
