1. root
2. mkdir /home/opt/scripts
3. mv /home/user/MyDocs/Download/Optimize900 /home/opt/scripts
4. cd /home/opt/scripts/
5. sh Optimize900
You don't need to make it executable or put .sh in the end.

This thread tells me two things:
1. A lot of geeks here. :-D
2. We're thinking that the N900 NEEDS to be optimized, and it's far from it.
(2,900 views in one day).

Here is what I did.
If you dont have /home/user/scripts directory, than make it.
-- copy XOptmize.png to /opt/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon
-- copy OptimizeN900.desktop to /usr/share/applications/hildon
-- copy the original script provided by OP to /home/user/scripts
and then you can place the XOptmize icon in your desktop.

You need to go to the folder of the Optimize900 script. You could write "find /home |grep Optimize" to find what folder it is in. Then use "cd /to/that/folder/" and "sh Optimize900".

i read thru this entire post and i have a few questions:
1 - is there a way to set this program up as a button or widget in the ui menu so that we wouldnt have to run it from xterm each time?
2-have you determined that there are indeed no side effects from running this program?
3 - how do you get 15 hours of uptime of your battery?????? i barely get 3 if i am lucky. i do have my internet connection up all the time for email retrieval and i use bluetooth all day as well so i am curious as to how you do it

then i'll just run x-term. type root (or sudo gainroot)
next
finally

I really appreciate the effort on this same as I do all contributions from developers, but I really don't have any need for it. My present uptime is 16 days and often goes far longer. The phone never slows down and rebooting makes zero performance difference. Maybe I'm just lucky.
But Maemo is Linux and a properly running Linux system should almost never need a reboot. So wouldn't a better approach to fixing slowdowns be to find the actual cause of any performance problems and correcting them rather than glossing them over with a Windoze-style reboot or restarting a slew of services and clearing caches?
