I absolutely love SubtleLock and the extra room it's given me on my lockscreen when paired with LockInfo. I do have a recent problem where it seems to be slowing down my device immensely. Is anyone else having the same issue?

Since the last update, after using the device for an hour or so the phone gets extremely laggy. Flipping through homescreen pages jitters and stalls, the notification center is very unresponsive when pulling it down and stalls. Apps and folders have a hard time opening/launching. When I remove the tweak, all seems fine. By using SystemStatus I've also noticed that when the tweak is installed my CPU usage is sky high and regularly spikes up to 80-90% at idle.

Am I the only one? Searching around hasn't uncovered any similar issues.

This a know issue. I have seen this come up once in a while. You can use mobile terminal and top to see if the springboard usage is a little high. It should be at zero.
 
I've noticed that too in the past couple of days. They just put out an update not too long ago. still my phone starts to slow down. swiping to the next page of icons would just lag it out and even pulling up the app switcher via zephyr gesture. I'm on the verge of running iLEX Rat on my phone to clean it out! i really want to keep this tweak but if it's the cause of the slow down then i might just take it off till the dev fixes the damn thing.

This tweak does slow down your springboard. It's constantly using the CPU. Run top and you'll see what I mean.

The sad thing is, when I bought this back in april, it worked flawlessly.

^ This exactly. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one having this issue.

I did get a hold of the dev via twitter. He replied with -

I'm working on tracking it down now

Good to see he's aware and on the case. Thanks guys.
 
I've got a fresh install on 6.0.2 (semi-restore and iLEX RAT) with the 2.1.2-1 version and no lag at all

any updates??

Nothing yet. Another person on twitter said to both the dev and I that there seems to be an issue with the clock function. Every time the device is unlocked something with the clock function is hogging the CPU.

Here's where we left off.

Can someone post a .deb file of the old version before the crappy update? I seriously can't wait till the "Ayra" tweak comes out!!! only reason why i won't be updating to iOS 7 now is all because of that. It's basically has the same concept of the iOS 7 lockscreen(only reason i'd upgrade to iOS 7).

Just watched that video, very nice. The slider is a deal breaker for me though. I hope there are some slider options.
