Well here is what I learned. On issue

1. Speed check of the TP with nothing loaded.
It stayed fast until I setup activesync to sync with my server, then the intermittant "lockups" started again - a lockup being more then 1 second delay on menu interaction, start button, ect. It is still better then with TF3D running, but activesync does seem to be the slowdown (too much e-mail in my inbox? 5000 items 640 megs from the last 3 years? It is set to sync the fist 1k of each message from the last month, approx 600 emails)


2. Batt check with nothing running (except push exchange sync)
This is difficult to tell, but it seems to be the approximalty the same without resorting to leaving the phone alone all day in the same spot for several days.


3. Troubleshooting for myself as to why my custom ROMs were so slow.
I was trying to include too many progs and tweaks.

I also learned that too bare of a rom is almost as bad as to full of a rom. It is disappointing to have a wonderful machine with nothing on it. It was missing too many items to really leave it running for a full test being my only phone and link to the office, but it did seem to resolve some problems, but missing too many programs created others. Now to set up a fast useable rom....
