About the network, you must believe me, it is for poweruser, bittorrent and surfing at the same time, it is for many connection. Also I put a lot of pressure to TCP-stack meaning I reduced some timing. Also it rejects many packets in your network. For example it doesn't forward any packets for other anymore which is a key feature of the internet. It's call free-ride. Also you can watch and analyze the traffic with the monitor. About benchmark I tried the site I have mentioned in my tutorial. It's not that dramatic. And with bittorrent I get very high dl like 500-600 kb/s. That's fast. If you want faster install pref.js and mount-opts, too. Don't forget that my scripts are considered as aggressive optimization. Also I pause in developement of this script.
Now you mentioned it I did see some better change when surfing the net. Because I changed the ad-hoc channel from automatic to a specific chennel about the time I installed your scripts I thought the change helps. However, page loading is much faster both on ad-hoc (my homemade network) or 3.5G so it must be thanks to the scripts.

I am not fancy with torrent on N900. I just want pages to be loaded quicker, especially flash video or maps or pages with pictures.

It would be better to have some GUI to know what the scripts do, but I guess GUI will occupy some RAM and will make the N900 slower. But I trust you. I haven't seen any developer in this community spreading scripts or apps that harm the N900 on purpose and hope things stay that way. I trust and want to always trust this community.

I am still in two minds about installing the kernel46 again. It is tempting and I don't care about reflashing. Just that I have not seen it worth for me. I use DrSNES, not PSX4ALL, I don't fancy Debian or USB host, I like longer battery than overclocking, I would love to try Nitdroid but I can't afford rebooting to make call or take pictures. Ipv4 is fast enough for a phone, ipv6 is not even good with windows 7. And if you can bring along a keyboard for N900, you can bring a laptop or smaller, an Ipad.

In all, I just want a stable improvement version for the omap1, the one that includes something like swappolube and your scrips for faster internet, and some tweaks to improve battery life. Power46 kernel is too much. Do the scripts work well on power46 kernel, anyway?

Thank you for sharing and Merry Christmas to ALL
