[Q] Kernel, Governor, I/O scheduler.......?????? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I'm a noob of kernel and related
so..can anyone explain me what is governor and I/O scheduler?
now I have kernel SEGA V9..
it has a lot of governor and I/O sheduler...anyone knows a description of them???
GOVERNORS:
virtuous
ondemandx
darkside
superbad
badass
lazy
intellimand
brazilianwax
smoothass
smartassV2
savagedzen
interactiveX
lagfree
minmax
scary
smartass
interactive
conservative
userspace
powersave
lionheart
ondemand
performance
I/O SCHEDULER
noop
anticipatory
deadline
cfq
vr
bfq
sio
I don't use my arcS for games..but I have social applications (facebook, twitter, tapatalk, instagram ecc ) and photo and music apps
which is the best governor and I/O schedule? I would like to have a smooth phone but also battery,,,
thanks

For smoothness and battery life with this kernel- use this:
CPU Governor : Virtuous (tweaked version of SmartassV2 for even better batterylife!)
I/O: SIO
Sent from my LT18i using xda app-developers app

i get about 36 hrs battery with no lag ( i dnt play games so maybe i get that much..rest normal use its my primary cellphone)

[Q] ondemand vs InteractiveX

Hi guys!
i was wondering if interactiveX governor is more "battery Friendly" than Ondemand....what do you think about it?
Which min.Freq is reccomended in DoomKernel for GB ( using x-gamer 1.8 rom)??
Happy reading - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663809
tnx, i've already readed the post but i'm interested to a direct comparison between the 2 governors (if anyone can do it) from the battery point of view....because teorically InteractiveX should guarantee better performance/battery experience =)
Try it, the best way to find out.
InteractiveX Governor: Created by kernel developer "Imoseyon," the InteractiveX governor is based heavily on the Interactive governor, enhanced with tuned timer parameters to better balance battery vs. performance. The InteractiveX governor's defining feature, however, is that it locks the CPU frequency to the user's lowest defined speed when the screen is off.
Ondemand Governor: This governor has a hair trigger for boosting clockspeed to the maximum speed set by the user. If the CPU load placed by the user abates, the OnDemand governor will slowly step back down through the kernel's frequency steppings until it settles at the lowest possible frequency, or the user executes another task to demand a ramp.

[Q] default CPU and io scheduler

Does any one know what is the default CPU and io scheduler on the stock nexus 7 ROM?
Thanks

[Q] GT-i9195 SET CPU your settings?

Ok so I am experimenting with Set CPU app
Can you guys tell me what Profiles you run or prefer
Thanks

I don't use SetCPU (way over complicated for no good reason) but Kernel Tweaker. With my experience on the F4k kernel:
JB - Interactive
KK - Smartass V2
IO Scheduler: normal phone use ROW. If you have some regular write operation, CFQ. I've tried SIO, ZEN and NOOP, overrated. While NOOP and ZEN feels really responsive (like mininium lag) but it unstable. As for SIO I don't see what people see in it. It not particularly faster, and nor battery friendly. At least that what I saw on my S3 with Pegasus governor. And I don't use benchmark, this is a pure observe from normal day-to-day use on open app, multi-tasking, browsing, etc. I've tried all mention governor for at least a week.
As for UV, I've done -1.5V (yes, not a typo) on my phone. Again, I don't bench or play games, just regular day-to-day email, browsing, photo, etc.
I'm on JB 4.2.2 Stock and using SmartAssV2 + ROW. Max freq. on 2.05Ghz. Working fine so far.
Check out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2686845 for undervolting results part (I'm guessing it's in your SET CPU too).

I'm using f4ction kernel 1.3.0 with 90hardlimit_2.05Ghz.zip flashed after the kernel with TWRP.
Also, i like CPU Control, which is very easy to use.
I don't need set cpu anymore. I turn on air plane mode at night so battery life can be longer.
And checked on cpu's cores, system automaticly control frequences.
Using SetCPU the Charging with USB takes ages
Do I need to set a profile as I have tried other apps to change stuff but this seems to be the only option for me with a modified Stock Rom
Have used these settings so far with no lags or issues .. can someone pease clarify if this is ok...
SET SCREEN OFF
CPU - 810 - 384 Gov: Interactive / Priority 100
SCREEN ON
CPU - 1566 -384 Gov : OnDemand / Deadline / Priority 52
BATTERY <45
CPU - 1026 - 394 Gov: OnDemand / CFQ / Priority 50
SLEEP 00:45 - 08.25
CPU - 584 - 384 Gov: Powersave / CFQ / Priority 49
What about Battery or CPU Temp?

Powersave governor is a governor that locks on the lowest possible speed provide by the kernel. No point on setting a speed range since it doesn't dynamically switch between them.
Well as I mention above, I don't recommend using schedule beside ROW or CFQ. If anyone still thinks SIO, NOOP, Deadline is significantly faster/better than CFQ this is a very interesting test: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_iosched_2012

[Q] Which scheduler and governor are you guys using ?

I flashed the rin kernel and wanted to know what you guys using as io scheduler and governor. What were the effects of choosing them ?
Thanks.

You can find explanations of governors and schedulers here:
[REF][TWEAKS] Kernel Governors, Modules, I/O Schedulers, CPU Tweaks, AIO App Configs
[Info]Useful info about I/O scheduler and CPU Governor!
Thank you for these useful posts but im more interested in what people actually experience. And i heard that some governors are not supported by some phones.
Interactive/noop
Now i set it up to smartassv2 and sio for screen on. For screen off i use smartassv2 and sio. I'm using performance profile xposed module.
EDIT: Now i read some of those and learned that using different governors for screen off and screen on would cause lags when waking up the device so smartassv2ed all of them.
I use intellidemand and deadline for screen on. Has always worked well for me on any phone.
