ROM Performance Degrades Over Time

lol...Don't see how this is something that should get closed, but whatever.

I had HUGE issues with the stock ROM, and have run into problems like this with WM6.1, 6.5 and 6.5.X...it's not something that I've only seen recently.

MightyROM was really good in the past about it really and I'm still perfecting my ROM 100% but so far I think I got it like I like it.

well, I've been running the original shipped rom on my tp for 9+ months, occasionally flashing another rom, but always going back and doing a full sprite restore. when I notice issues, I just clear out old txts and temp.
the problem with lots of txt's and email is all the data is stored in a single db file. a large file takes longer to load and page in memory. I find that simply clearing the long conversations does the most good. (ie. daily weather, voicemail alerts, sports updates, long winded gf.)

Hmm...after doing some perusing of the file system, I see what you mean about all the texts being in a single db file. I would assume that even if you could force them to the storage card, it wouldn't do any good, as it still needs to load the whole file...

I got a question about flashing to shipped rom before flashing to a custom rom, do you need to wait for the user customizations before flahing to a custom rom? If you do can you explain to me why.

No need to go through customizations. Once the alignment screen comes up, go ahead and flash the custom rom.
