My TP on the stock ROM took like 45-50 seconds to load the Windows directory. Of course that was when modifying the task bar icons was new and I was in that directory all of the time... it was awful.

Well mine is only 3 seconds with GSM a GSM manila installed [not HD]

But... man I hope XBOXMod's new manila won't make \windows take minutes to load.

i think it my have something to do with the pagepool size. when i was using stock rom, it took a long time to list the entire directory but when i started using a custom rom with 12 MB as the pagepool it only took 2 seconds. this is pretty much my criterion for comparing custom roms...

Chronster I read from another thread you're running the sprint stock rom. When I first got my TP \Windows was dreadfully slow loading until I flashed a custom rom. Now it is pretty much instant.

that's interesting. I wonder what it is that makes the difference.

Might be this lol. 32 is the max right? And you can only edit the pagepool by flashing the rom right?

It seems to be a combination of the pagepool size and what build of WM it is. I noticed a large speed-up in access time since the 20xxx series of builds over the 19xxx (stock uses this). Just my opinion though.

Anything is max, you can set it to whatever you wish. It's most easily modified on the ROM file, then you flash it on to your phone.

There's been mixed results with the pagepool. It's rumored that a larger one decreases battery life, and the performance gains are minimal.

Stock is 18mb, I personally have mine set to 24 as I often keep a few extra programs open and switch between them a lot.

There's no need to set it super tiny because the TP has so much available RAM. The pagepool size cuts in to your available RAM.

Mine takes about 2 seconds.

I am running KK's 1.8 ROM and it only takes about 2 or 3 seconds to load.
