Trying this now. Does this still keep the swappiness at 30? And would I have to keep running this after every reboot?

Battery is holding up really well. Left wifi on all last night and only a very small drop in battery this morning. Also sent a PM about emulators. They ran smooth and barely noticed and lag. Thanks again!

Does this patch only effect pulse audio?
I ask because a much easier way of increasing battery life by decreasing pulseaudio's activity would be to turn touch clicks off.
I've done this and it has made a noticeable difference.

This time around however, I'm being safer by slowly working my way upward, As you could tell by my usual updates.
@Tiago Tiago
I have no plans to upload to the repose, as I require more feed backs to confirm whether this is even safe or not :/. Believe me, I don't want thousands of users coming here to flame me
, seeing as I have a lot of bad feedbacks so far and one excellent one...I have another update thats even faster but I need to test more
.Thanks ScourgeV
Edit: Just thought I should put this here to show battery level increase...

I've included 3 files, your batteryeye screenshot, my batteryeye screenshot and an overlay of the 2.
I have not used your patches.

My older patches somehow causes the battery life on PR1.3 to be slightly worst. Also, My speakers blew not necessarily because of the "loudness" but because it built up a lot of strain, from the loudness from the mp3's I was testing, until finally, it gave out..How do I know this?
At the time my speakers blew my volume was pretty low, it wasn't at all "loud". It happened while I was playing Quaker 3. This is why I said the n900 would never be able to play loud music because it's speakers are too weak. If the strain builds up, over time, they will in fact blow....
The reason I'm posting is that I'm intrigued by the quote above. Have you fitted new speakers? If not, have you considered getting better speakers from another phone? Just a thought.
