I'm afraid I probably won't have the time to run a test like that... I
agree that it would be interesting if someone does, though.

I've tested the option with an old SHR-U Image from 8.8.2009 (updated to
current) and it feels like... wow, fast.
But, after activate option on an other SHR-U there where no improvements
to feel. therefore i reflashed my own with the newest image (ca.
6.9.2008) and update it to current state of sh
like... wow, fast.
But, after activate option on an other SHR-U there where no improvements
to feel. therefore i reflashed my own with the newest image (ca.
6.9.2008) and update it to current state of shr-u. the effect is, when i
activate no_new_fair_sleepers, nothing. i feel no more improvements.

I was swapping through all visible screens twice - waiting for the redraw
each time - I was probably doing 14 or 16 window swaps total - so it went
from around 1s/swap to about .66 s/swap.

I decided to try a semi-formal experiment... I haven't had time to do
multiple repetitions but I figured I'd share anyways. I'm running shr-u
updated about a week ago. My process was that I rebooted my FR, ran
through a set of steps, at each point timing how long it took from starting
the act

i'd say yes.
since debugfs is in memory it will be lost when shutting down.
as pointed out already (by paul iirc), you need to insert the mount into
fstab (and remember, there's a sensible mountpoint already below /sys/
somewhere, check this thread) and do the echoing in a stru

every reboot?

Cool!
Would this setting be changed permanently when following your instructions
below? If not, how can we make it permanent (ie. applied even after reboot)?
Thanks,
