Slow homescreen

So every since i switch to cyanogenmod my homescreen has been really slow. Everytime i come out of a application and come to the homescreen all the widgets and shortcuts load and it takes a couple seconds or more and it gets really annoying. This happens to me with every launcher stock, adw, and laucherpro. It even happens when im running 1ghz. Also when i click the launcher all the apps start loading and takes like 5 seconds for me to click on a app.

Anyone know the problem?

Enjoy.

 

Cool beans, giving it a whirl.

 

thank you it worked

 

Thanks for the post. I, so far, has cured the lag.

 

Ill add my two cents for what it is worth -- The hack worked for me as well. And I'm grateful.

Not originally my own mod/hack; but you are all welcome. ;P

 

Am I the only one who this hasn't worked for?

 

Possibly.

Do you have compcache enabled? if so, try disabling it.

 

I'm not sure...what is that exactly?

 

that hack didn't improve things for me either. but my problems were basically already fixed. ZERO redraws with ADW. ONLY redraws on LP with keyboard position change while in program and taking it out of a dock. in both cases, keep in memory, portrait only, and compcache enabled.

 

Wait what is compcache? I keep hearing about it and I tried googling it but I couldn't find exactly what it was...how do you enable it?

You can read about compcache in these threads, what it does, and why some people like it and others prefer not to use it.
