Anzicchè tenere tutto in RAM, conserverete i processi meno importanti in questo swap ed otterrete migliori prestazioni in termini di velocità. Keep everything in RAM rather than opens, hold the jobs less important in this swap and you'll get better performance in terms of speed.

Well I installed it, phone seems alot faster.. lets see if my battery life stays the same..

Here are some screenshots.. you can see the mem has increased.. even with safari open it stays the same. everything is much faster!

This is an iphone 3G Custom FW 3.1

Hi,

What are you using to display the free memory in the status bar at the top ?

I use SBSettings to display mem at top.

The only other thing I have loaded is BossPaper to change the background and remove the dock icon labels

Just thought I would add that there are now two versions of iPhone VM and I have found the initial (first version) to be not very stable - specifically, certain games will deadlock (load for a while then freeze or go to a back screen) when iPhone VM is installed.

However a second version, iPhone VM 2 is available on the same repo source and it uses a dynamic swap file instead of the fixed 256MB swap file of the first one, and I have found this second version very stable.
