I repeated the tests I did in posts 2324&2329 (opening a file in OOCalc directly from Maemo, editing a minimal amount, and closing OOCalc again), now concentrating on the locations of both swap & ED partitions. The setup is as similar as possible, but can't be fully compared of course.
Each test was run 3 times. The numbers behind each line are the times in seconds:

- Swap on emmc, ED on sd: 95,105,90
- swap on emmc, ED on emmc: 95,75,75
- swap on sd, ED on sd:95,80,75
- swap on sd, ED on emmc: 80,70,65

I then overclocked to 900mhz, and ran the last test twice more:80,60

So as expected 'swap on sd & ED on emmc' is the fastest, and overclocking helps, but not a lot.
I can't really explain the second place for both on emmc though. I am also surprised about the bad performance of the first setup. But the conclusion is clear enough for me.

When Estel's image is back up, I can try the same sequence again, so we will have some idea on the performance of Libre-office.
