Enable CompCache in BBv05?

[michael_campbell]

Would putting the command at the end of the 01cpuad file work?

That's what I did. Seems to be working ok for me. I'm using a Slayher kernel, if that makes any difference to you.

Pete, I'm trying to get the compcache script to start at boot but creating a file in /etc/init.d didn't work. Which one of these files should I put the command in? I see 01cpuad, 02vm, 03backup, 04modules and 04vending

I appended it to the 01 file.

AWESOME! So far have been running it for about 4 hours on Slayher's 900 Mhz 1.6 kernel and all is well. I have noticed much increased performance after heavy use where the phone would usually bog down a bit. Screen redraws have ceased as well. During normal/light use it is just as snappy. So far so good! WOOT!

EDIT: After letting it run a while and running compcache stats it shows an effective compression ratio of about 2.3 : 1. I was wondering what others that are running it are seeing.

Question. If I add that to the 01cpu file do I have to put SU on the first line I add ? And do I just add it to the bottom and use cd /system/bin (next line) compcahe start ??? Thanks

Never mind. Got it. Checked it in terminal with compcache stats and seems to be working.

Can someone please post a set of peanut butter jelly directions on how to create or edit the needed file to enable this at startup please. Also include the commands and syntax. Thanks.

I second this! Peanut Butter Jelly time please !

Added to ROM Manager. Have not tested yet so let me know. Of course you would need a supported kernel before testing.

Worked good here, installed from Rom Manager

For those running Compcache on BB V0.5 or for that matter in general if you could document your experiences over the course of the next few days / week it would be appreciated. Hopefully Pete can gain some useful info and roll it into his next release with some tweaks if need be.

it has to be slayher's 1.6 kernels (the latest).

go into terminal emulator and type in the following:
su
compcache start



if you want to check if it worked you can type in:
su
compcache stats
