Easy: So you can see what effects the changes have right then and there. Having to reboot between kernel tweaks is the winblows way...

Another way to say this is that Swappolube's default settings are not necessarily the correct settings for how you run your particular N900, so you may want to tweak further yourself. Seeing the effects immediately upon committing them to the kernel helps tremendously and is the whole point of being able to change kernel parameters on the fly, whether on a semi-embedded device like the N900 or a full-blown PC (where all of these settings also exist, but I personally have yet to play with them).

That brings up a good question, actually: how come there isn't a Swappolube for all the other Linux distros out there?

Just finished the interface!
Still need some code to provide the new functionality but I'm really happy with it and wanted to give you a little preview.

Hope you like it.

Uploaded an updated version (1.0-1) in extras-devel

This update includes the requested functionality, i.e. the storage of custom configurations, and a redesign of the GUI.

Changelog:
  • Added new option to store and display a custom configuration.
  • Several GUI improvements (buttons moved to the left, description includes default values, ...).
  • Clean-up of code; better naming of variables.
  • Changes in the postinstall script to include the custom settings file.
  • Bump version number - app is now feature complete.

As usual, will wait before promoting it also to the testing repo for a couple of days.
In any case,please let me know if you find something wrong/misbehaving or/and more ideas for additions you'd like to see.

Would be great if you could add to the GUI the ability to change more values as explained here:

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=69973

You could, for example, provide a 'Default', 'Safe' and 'Fastest' goroup of values to select from.

Default is safe, so there's default and recommended.

Well I meant 'Safe' as a safe improvement over default.

Anyway, there are some keys that could be added such as:

/proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes
/sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/nr_requests
/sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/nr_requests
