it's so you don't have to run as root, meaning you can use the command in alarmed without using sudo
(I had the same problem with sudo asking for a password)
First extract OptimizeN900 and copy to you N900 (I copied to Downloads)
Then go into xterm and run the following code
makes the directory 'scripts' within 'opt'
Copies the OptimizeN900 file from 'Downloads' to 'scripts'
After you've done that you can execute the script by typing
You can also put this command into alarmed

Thanks JorgeFX.
My Linux skills are a bit rusty (they weren't much to begin with :D), but aren't there some tools/programming tools to monitor the processes and find the leaks. I would install and report the logs for anything that can help pinpoint the culprits.
I do not use my N900 excessively, and almost never use the browser. I do not suffer much slow downs or unresponsiveness (except from the phone app which is always slow and stupid anyway). My current uptime is 21 days and battery life is very reasonable.

@all
so here's what i did usin qbwidget,
on the add cmd option, type on the command,
OK hope this helpz
EDIT: if your doubtful of working, try doing a test, on the qbwidget option, at the results portion, dont make the text "hidden" (to see the open & exit code) then save.
On the qbw, the texts "root shell enabled" "your n900 is being optimized. ." and "your n900 is now optimized" should appear as you tap the widget.

I agree! Like I said on this post: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...0&postcount=30
It will NOT fix the bugs that NOKIA should fix, but it helps
Reboot is no option as you loose 50-150mAh, depends on the state.
This script DOES NOT restart anything yet. What it does is it kills processes and hopes the watchdog starts them again. (you know the "bad idea" commercials?)

Some apps (example: Omweather and that Fcamera app) ask you to reboot before using them after installing. Would this program make rebooting unnecessary?
