Did you add these commands into a /etc/event.d script or some other place so that it is executed automatically? I would like to do that, but I am afraid I could brick my device if this is executed too early..

In the corresponding bugreport some guy advised to edit /etc/pmconfig instead of putting it in some event.d script. However, as there are reports that the device might act weirdly under active smart power saving, I do run these commands manually after each reboots. As I reboot only every few weeks this does not require a big effort, but on the other hand it is easy to turn off the hack simply by rebooting in case problems occur.

I tried it via /etc/pmconfig, but experienced some issues, cf. http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=48207 . But anyways, egoshin's advice suggests that the order of the commands matters and that cannot be achieved via /etc/pmconfig I am afraid.
I was thinking about a startup script that would call a smartreflex-enabler script in MyDocs. If there was an issue, then you would just connect the N900 in USB mass storage mode and the smartreflex-enabler script would not be available..
start on started hildon-desktop script echo "1" >/sys/power/sr_vdd2_autocomp echo "1" >/sys/power/sr_vdd1_autocomp end script

As root you can do in X-Terminal:
This will make the N900 write less to the swap partition (it will still swap out when needed though, so no worries), resulting in less operations on the flash disk resulting in a more responsive device with longer battery life time.Code:echo 30 >/proc/sys/vm/swappiness
IMHO it's more than just a placebo.
