I have this on a 3G with 3.1. Lag is a bit better. No safe mode. No crashes or anything. 'Free Up Memory' doesn't seem to do anything anymore, but I guess it hasn't got anything to free up
I have been using this today and have noticed lag, sometimes more than before the application was installed.
I have also experienced a little bit of instability. I'm going to continue to see how it goes over the weekend and then make a decision on Sunday
anyone with a 3gs try this? more ram is always useful no matter how much you have. please let me know your thoughts.. thanks.
I wouldn't... It's not actually RAM. It's Swap space...
If it pulls the swap space from the boot partition then I'm glad I bumped it up to 1gig with PwnageTool.

I don't think it does. I only had 20 megs free on / before installing the app and still have 20 free. The app description says it creates a 250meg swap. I can't find it in /etc/fstab or by running the df -h or mount commands so I suspect it creates a swap file rather than a swap partition and judging by my phone, it has to be in /var.
What repo did you find it on?
The repo I found was definitely NOT in English... So I couldn't read the description.
Same repo, I'm assuming "creando*un*file*di*swap*di*256Mb" means it creates a swap file of 256mb. Maybe someone can translate or check the free space before and after installing it.
not to drag this off topic but how did those asterisks get added to my post? They weren't there when I typed it.creando*un*file*di*swap*di*256Mb
Bear in mind this will reduce your battery some because it is in effect reading from writing to your drive. How much depends on how many things you have backgrounded.
you guys should try the plist method, it seems better
