Definitely something is really wrong. Even with a very slow class 1 sdcard there is not too much lag and no freeze.
You probably need to start over with no overclock first.
Be sure to extand root on the entire sdcard and check if swap is enabled. Then reboot.
Don't forget that the first time you connect your device on WiFi apt-worker will start automatically and N900 will be very slow for let's say 3-4 minutes.
After a new installation, if your N900 is still freezing and lagging i think your sdcard is probably faulty or corrupted.

FYI guys, here are what's working now on N900 with Maemo Leste :

Calls (2G, 3G, 3.5G) (need better integration)
SMS
WiFi
Data (2G, 3G, 3.5G)
SIP calls and messages (TLS)
Social messaging (through libpurple or bitlbee)
FM Transmitter
Infrared ir-tx (custom driver needed)
HW acceleration
Overclock (850MHz actually, 1GHz might be possible)
GPS
Web browser (links2 gui mode) (TLS 1.3)
Video ( XV acceleration with Mplayer/SMplayer)
Audio (Pulseaudio and UCM)
Game Emulators (Retroarch) (Picodrive) (Pcsx-rearmed)
Youtube streaming and download (yt-dlp)
Almost all classic command line tools
Emails (imap4)
The last Linux kernel is 6.1.48 (2023)
And other things i don't remember.

In fact only bluetooth (+ fmrx) and the camera are not working yet.
Of course many functionalities need some better integration or need to be improved.

In my opinion, touch screen responsiveness is still slower than Fremantle but someone with transition.ini experience could help.

It would seem that the signing keys for maemo leste's apt repository (maedevu.maemo.org/leste) have expired in the last couple of days. I have reported it through github but I am not sure whether that is the best way to reach the maintainers.
Code:
$sudo apt update
fails with a EXPKEY signal.

The best way to reach the dev team is IRC: #maemo-leste

Wizzup is already working on the issue apparently.

Some questions:
1. Is swap enabled by default of is user required to do something?
2. To overclock do I need to hassle with fremantle side or can everything be done on Leste?
3. When you list what works do they work out of the box or are there things user needs to do to get them working?

But I appreciate the work you have been doing which I have followed on iirc. It is awesome how much effort you have put to this! And big thanks for an update!!!

I think you need to enable it manually via Terminal:

Code:
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=2097152
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile
And append this to /etc/fstab:

Code:
/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0
To overclock do I need to hassle with fremantle side or can everything be done on Leste?
Fremantle requires you only to add a new bootmenu item using uImageX instead of uImage BUT you can make it other way - rename uImage to uImageOrig and uImageX to uImage. This will use overclocked kernel by default. Keep in mind that before kernel update - remove uImage, move uImageOrig to uImage and proceed with update, then do all overclocking steps again.

Thanks Maemish !

Swap is supposed to be activated by default in the last image (but i didn't try it)

For overclock, it is better and safer to do U-boot things from Fremantle in my opinion.

Most things are working out of the box depending of course on settings and apps installed and excepting calls and ir-tx stuff which are still experimental (but working well).

Many thanks, a replacement key has already been shared by Wizzup, which can be manually updated with the commands below:

Code:
wget -O - https://maedevu.maemo.org/main-repo-key.asc | sudo apt-key add -
