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?
It's called a redraw and all 2.2 ROMs (even stock) suffer from it to some degree. Enable compcache if your kernel supports it, tell ADW to stay persistent in memory, wipe your data cache in SPRecovery/ClockworkMod Recovery, and clear your Dalvik cache. All of these will help with but might not prevent redraws.
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.
