AppsToSD or not AppsToSD

Hi,
could someone answer my question:
I've about 50 Apps on my Hero. It says that there are almost 40 MB free Space on my Hero.
What is faster?
The Apps with Apps2SD on my Transcend Class6 16 GB SD Card (about 9MB speed on WIN7)
or:
The Apps on the phone and no changes?

Your phone memory is always going to be faster than your SD card.
Personally, I've seen no need to use AppsToSD yet, but that may change in the future. My advice would be that as long as you've got plenty of free memory, you may just as well leave them where they are.
Regards,
Dave

Influence of cooked rom on memory

I have read a lot of info about memory, but somehow i don't seem to grasp the whole concept.
Here is what i understand so far about the internal memory.
part of it is Ram (wm calls is program memory)and the other part is rom (storage memory). Since i have an tp2 I am suppose to have the following Memory ROM: 512 MB RAM: 288 MB. I understand that part of the rom memory is taken bij processes and memory reservation. 1) My question is is the size of the custom cooked rom take from my rom ram or any other place (I mean if i have a bigger rom flashed, will it eat from my rom. or ram or neither? 2) my second question is if i stuff my rom with programs or files will it slow down the performance of my phone?(put in a different form should i install as much programs as possible in my internal memory or should i keep some space free?)
3) does anyone know the read/write speed of my rom memory. since i have a very fast microsd card (sandisk 8gb class 4) I was wondering if it might be close to the same speed or not?
4) if i have a cooked rom with sense, but sense is not running will it still take more program memory?
5) I remember a post that showed how to sync with my micro sd card (my documents of pc and wm) but i can't seem to find it anyone?
thanks in advance!

-some short answers, RAM is where running programs and their data is loaded/stored/executed - so only running programs use it.
Class 4 is very acceptable to exec programs from, I'll try Class6 shortly, never did compare to iunternal memory, but the bottom line is that it's OK to run programs from SDHC.
-remember SDHC gets unmounted if you choose to connect over USB as "disk drive"

Thanks Alcapone,
I have tested a class6 and some class 4 or trenscend, but my sandisk class 4 was much quicker, so i would love to see a class 6 from sandisk but others i would prefer my sandisk class 4.
Let me refrase my questions.
If i flash a lite rom, or a fully stocked rom wil it take away from my availible ram or rom or neither? (not talking about running programs just installed)
And about the post i can't find, if i remember correctly i should be able to active sync, but instead of my documents going to main memory, they would go to my documents on the memory card.
thanks for the quick reply.

[Q] "Cannot save photo - not enough free space" + more than 4GB free on SD card

[Q] "Cannot save photo - not enough free space" + more than 4GB free on SD card
Hey there,
I was taking some pictures with my phone (HTC TD2, original ROM) the other day and out of the blue an error appeared notifying me that the last photo cannot be saved since there is not enough free space. I double checked the amount of free space available on the SD card (this is where photos are set to be stored) and just to be sure also the internal memory, but both were fine (SD: more than 4GB free, internal memory: ca. 170MB free).
What is this? Some kind of a joke M$ is playing on customers? ;o)
In case anyone knows what can be causing this, please, let me know. Thanks.

Have you tried changing your sd card? One of my friends had a similar problem and a faulty sd card proved to be the reason.

Dear chacik,
Thanks for your response. Change of SD card helped, however, when I put back the original SD card (from which nothing has been deleted since the error occurred), Windows happily saved photos to it as well.
Sometimes WM behaves in a strange manner...

WP BENCH - looking for Mango and Samsung phone combo guy

Hi,
becouse of the rules I can't post this thread to the development section
Anyway, I'm looking for some1 with Mango and Samsung phone combo.
I'm working on new version of WP BENCH and I need to know if there's any difference in DATA test between memory and storage part of the test.
If you would be so nice and want to help, please go to the Marketplace, download WP BENCH ($free), run the DATA test and post here your result of both its parts.
Thanks!
Robert

Well thats really strange, the storage speed is same as memory speed and it happens on all devices, even HTCs with MicroSDs.
Looks like
a) Mango optimization is more than amazing
b) They're using some "first save to memory then write to storage in the separate thread" hack
Strange
