It could be anywhere.
This is what I'm going to do: release the next versions with these commands among with other improvements. The ionice commands will work for people who are using their phone in open mode only but won't do any harm to people who aren't.

Then later I'll try to make them work to everyone, but this will take time.

Re: [Stable!] FasterN9

Version 1.1.5 released.

This release will bring big speed improvements to all users and huge speed improvements to devices running in open mode.

It also fixes (or tries to fix) lags in QuasarMX when FasterN9 is installed.

If there are no critical bugs confirmed, this version will be released as 1.2 stable in a week.

Network (TCP) performance is also greatly improved in this release.

Please uninstall Drop Cache if you have it installed, as it erases the disk cache, which was tunned in this release.

Changelog:
fastern9 (1.1.5) unstable; urgency=low
* Disk cache tuning. Please uninstall "Drop cache" if you have it installed, otherwise there will be no gain as it erases the cache
* I/O prioritization of some processes to reduce latency. This will be applied only to phones running in "open mode"
* QuasarMX full and lite lag fix
* Improved network (TCP) performance

Re: [Stable!] FasterN9

So, this massive speed improvement won't be available for closed N9s? Also, can you suggest how to correct the stutter/skipping that we get for Ochotrack since adding it under "classify media" or "classify desktop" doesn't get rid of the skipping?

Thanks!

I'll take a look in this Ochotrack problem.
For now there will be bigger speed improvements to open devices than to closed devices. I'll start working on making it available to all devices but that may take time.

Re: [Stable!] FasterN9

how about normal mode?

Sorry for the question, but just wondering; what is the actual speed benefit an Average Joe will get by the tweak done to open N9s that isn't available to closed N9s? Anything that would be noticeable?

Re: [Stable!] FasterN9

@traysh do i really need to uninstall or is enough not use it?
