The fix you are thinking about is not the same as what is going on here. There are a couple specific animations(I believe Sunny is one of them) that are just slow, no matter what. The fix you are thinking of replaces the high res animation with a lower res animation so it will run faster.

The issue that MaxManila has, is not the same. MaxManila's issue stems from the use of the Backround for All mods that are around(you can tell it uses it by the white square that appears just before the Home screen appears upon bootup). I'm not sure how these mods accomplish it's task of putting the backround on all tabs, but whatever they do, they slow not only ALL the weather animations(not just specific ones) but also the flipping action of the clock. If you wanna test it, grab one of these mods and install it on a fresh manila 2.5 and see what happens.

The only way I have found to not slow the animations and still get the same background in all tabs is to use HDWalls instead of the background for all mod.

At this point, unless the Background for All mods are redone, I think the only way for MaxManila to not have the issue is possibly have a version that does not include any Background for All type mods in it and let the user deal with setting their own backgrounds.

FYI, JMorton10 was the one who found all this out and was the one that informed me about the background for all mods slowing things down..
