UI GPU acceleration

So I've noticed that the core OS and native Microsoft apps all run butter-y smooth because of the UI GPU acceleration. However third party apps are much less consistent.
I've been trying to find out but haven't been able to do so - do 3rd party apps also have access to GPU UI acceleration? If so is this by default or does the developer need to specifically enable this feature?
I'm asking as I'm trying to work out why some apps are so laggy (WhatsApp & TVShows to name two) but others seem to be almost as smooth as the native apps (e.g. NextGen Reader & Simple Paper). Is it down to lack of UI acceleration or do they just need more optimisation (in respect to the code).

Yeap, I would like to know too. Any developer?

I've done more digging but since I'm not a developer I'm not sure I've understood the documents I've found correctly.
I believe certain UI elements in 3rd party apps are automatically GPU accelerated but for others the developer has to manually enable this. If so this would explain why some apps are smoother than others and points to developer optimisation being required to get good performance (unlike iOS which seems to accelerate everything by default - or at least it seems that way judging by app performance).
Any developers care to correct me or comment?

If so, what's the point to require developers to activate it? It wouldnt be better if everything was accelerated by default?

I was under the impression that acceleration so enabled by default, though like with any os, some apps are just poorly written

The UI acceleration is not ON by default, you have to manually enable using toolkit called Transitions AFAIK

Yeah most Silverlight elements should be. From what I've read most of the core OS interface itself is compiled with a sort of a Hybrid SDK which runs a variant of xaml etc. natively.
As for 3rd party apps, it's mostly down to the developers themselves. Before Mango it was a nightmare trying to even get smooth scrolling on listboxes without using a ton of memory. And they've just recently in the 7.1 sdk added a performance analysis tool which I'm sure many developers are still oblivious of its existence.
What I've noticed though, is on my Omnia W, more heavy panorama apps like metrotube or imdb are running much more smoothly than on my Trophy due to the faster hardware.

GPU acceleration is On for all application by default.
But, if application working slow, this mean developer write programm not with "Windows Phone 7 Guidelines" and he not understand lifecycle of application.

Please read in the XNA forumx for a how to and downloads its very help full at least for me

The Base OS Stock Applications and OEM Apps may use Native Code. That is why they run better. That's why HTC Hub is so damn smooth, but 3rd party apps that use a lot of graphics resources just aren't.
It's disingenuous to assume that it's the developers' fault. Didn't people do the same exact thing when others were complaining about the list scrolling issues?
Additionally, much of the stock Apps are almost devoid of graphics. Messaging, Email, Calendar, etc. There isn't much graphics to render, so the phone has no issues giving great performance. I'm almost sure Microsoft utilized Native Code for Internet Explorer, and probably Zune functionality as well.
There's a huge difference in performance when using something like Zune or Internet Explorer, even when there is a ton of graphical resources being displayed on the screen (tons of album art, etc.) and a 3rd party application like Pulse which lags like crazy.

why is it only a very small amount then if it isn't poor coding?
Hardly any apps do it, which makes you assume it is the development.

A lot of apps perform poorly compared to the stock apps. Apps that do not use a lot of graphical resources are better off since the hardware has hardly anything to render, anyways.

Please, don't confuse people.
That's not a reason for this. HTC Hub uses native code only for accessing to the registry using internal drivers.

Every stock application, including even settings, are native and use an UIX (also called Silverlight for C++, mb I'm wrong). They don't use a managed code.
Ok, let's explain this.
Hardware acceleration is TURNED OFF by default, except a few elements.
If hardware acceleration is turned on for an element, what happens?
First - when element's property with a special attribute (like Background) changes, CPU RENDERS AN ELEMENT TO THE BITMAP
Second - Every time, when the region was overriden, on the phone's screen an ELEMENT ISN'T DRAWING, BUT THE BITMAP (cache) DRAWS.
Pros: cpu isn't using when perfoming transformations or changing opacity, because it's doing a gpu
Cons: if element is changing very often (except transformations and opacity) cpu must always redraw the bitmap
Also the very huge impact on perfomance is doing the CLR. Managed code usually much slower than native, even using JIT. Also additive impact is doing the managed wrappers and BCL classes.
Sorry for my english, I hope you've understood me. You can try my application (below in the signature) to see how have I am optimized it. It runs very smooth, but xaml parsing and managed wrappers are consuming too many cpu's time, that's why page transitions aren't as fast as the native.

a concise answer from someone who actually knows what they're talking about.
Thanks for that!

Yes, 3rd party apps that run in the silverlight / XNA sandbox do actually have GPU Acceleration turned on by default. If an app is not as smooth as the native apps, its because it was designed badly. You can checkout a number of apps such as Feed Me, Fast XDA, etc that are exceptionally fast and quite nicely depict native apps

Agreed - it's mostly down to poor developement practices, from developers who haven't properly read through the documention.
For example, parsing data on the UI thread is just stupid - should always be done on a background thread.
The amount of applications that also DONT BitmapCache images, therefore leaving most of them being constantly drawn by the CPU is ridiculous - and this one of the main reasons a lot of image intensive apps slow down - poor coding. That, and the developers are also using UI thread decoding for the images themselves, and not using background thread decoding introduced in Mango which improves interaction performance alot.
Marshalling updates for the UI thread using Dispathcer.BeginInvoke(() => Dispathcer.BeginInvoke(() => .... )) is also a good idea, as it tends to mean it has to wait for the UI thread to be cleared before invoking the code you sent through.
There are other instances where they're just trying to load to animate far too much at one time - instead of lining up animations and updates one by one, they're just letting things all try and run at the same time and bottleneck each other.
Effective use of BitmapCache's, and marshalling updates in queues rather than free-for-all, and NOT changing visibilites on UI elements, as this forces them to be redrawn. A better, though more code intensive way is to set the opacity to zero and disable hit testing. That way the resources are still oaded on the GPU, and won't have to redrawn every time they're shown.
It's certainly not possible to get the apps to perform as good as native (Silverlight is still quite... "performance hungry", especially in regards to XAML parsing), but you can certainly get them to be really acceptable, and personally I think my apps stand out as some of the better performing ones (complete with animations and lots of data - search "Springy for formspring" or "Artist Info" on your phones)

[APP] Autokiller Memory Optomizer 7.2

We have had much debate over this particular app (and others like it that don't compare IMHO) as to whether it is "useful" or not for our particular phones. Some agree that it is very useful to be able to fine tune our systems while others simply use the built in Task Manager and are content with that. Thanks to [email protected] and his new version, he has definitely made this app a necessity for our phone.
The skinny:
[From Home Page]
Autokiller Memory Optomizer is designed to fine-tune android system's inner memory manager routines to keep your device fast and smooth. It also features a full-powered process manager which lets you control your whole system. If you want to know what it does and how it works you should read about (the) details, process manager and check the faq.
Site url: http://andrs.w3pla.net/autokiller
Brief Changelog:
changes:
- LOTS of fixes and small improvements
- will properly be displayed in market (users with custom dpi saw only old
versions)
- fixed service - it will stay running/restarted if necessary
- great new look
- improved pages behaviour, more fluid user interface with less loading
- ICS compatibility
- Widgets: AutoKiller with free memory bubble, Quick restart, Memory
reclaim(!!!)
- updated 3rd party libraries
- much much more.....
I had the priveledge of beta testing this for Mate and he has made some amazing progress since the previous version. One feature that stands out for me is that on the main screen, simply click "Switch To Pages" and it will automatically reclaim lost memory which for me, is a god-send. I was able to click this and my available memory shot up to 570MB FREE! Another noteworthy feature is that there is a Services Tab which lets you kill tasks at the service level. Of course for the true geek, there is an Advanced Option that is packed with many useful options to keep your phone tweaked and running fast and smooth.
I've used this app for quite some time but now with the arrival of 7.2, it is a must-have app for anyone that wants complete control over their device.
You can download this app from the market or from a QR Code on his page:
http://andrs.w3pla.net/autokiller
Regards,
rast4man
*EDIT* - As of the latest release available on the Market I was informed by Mate/andrs that the memory reclaim option is only available via the widget. Regardless, it's a KICK-ASS feature that I use numerous times per day.
One question though: Do you think I should ask to have this thread moved to Hacking so that it sees more traffic?

I would have to agree with you, I do consider this a must have app. I have been beta testing this for a very long time an it has made leaps an bounds. There is lots of support from the developer an nothing but wonderful updates making it just that much better.

What settings do you guys have set for optimal performance?

Since I use V6 Supercharger Script by zepplinrox, the settings stick in Autokiller so my min frees, oom and all memory settings are applied from V6 and applied at boot. WickedDaze gave you great advice though about going to his website and check out the information there. It will break everything down for you and help you achieve optimal results for your phone.

I think the app works great, plus it comes with 3 widgets including a quick restart.

In words,
Dalvik Runtime is being replaced with next generation ART (android runtime) in Android 5.x or later. Google has introduced it now so that developers can start testing their apps with it.
The older Dalvik uses what is called JIT runtime compiler which basically compiles java dex code to optimized native code (C binary) at the runtime.
The next gen ART uses AOT (Ahead of time) compiler which optimizes and converts java/dex code to Native during installation (ahead of time).
Both have their pros and cons, but overall AOT is faster than JIT. AOT is better at doing fast things really fast e.g. Scrolling a page in app (list, images, webview, etc) would be faster with AOT (used by ART), less often it would need to reclaim memory (GC -> garbage collector) vs. JIT.
JIT used by Dalvik has added advantages of being able to optimize java/dex code to native better, but it takes time to do so.
Overall ART should give faster launch times, smoother scrolling and better battery. Its still in alpha stage, we probably will see ART in Android 5.0 L-release doing wonders.
Enable ART on any Stock ROM

But hey, from what I've read, ART pre-compiles the apps, and thus they don't need to run on a VM anymore. Isn't that right? But one advantage of VM is that apps are seperated from each other and the system. Thus app crashes, malware and virusses don't affect the system. So... if you are using ART, will the system now become more vulnarable? Are we gonna need virus scanners for real now with ART?

Optimal multi tasking configuration?

Hi everyone,
I am running Viperone 6.2.0 (Android 7.0) using elementalx kernel.
Performance and battery wise, it's okay, but somehow multitasking performance is really bad. It feels like LMK is being just too aggressive.
Feeling that 3GB should be able to perform multitasking decently, does anyone have any tweaks that have been tested for multitasking on this device?
By multitasking, imagine the scenario of modifying web pages (mixplorer and its code editor), while listening to music (deeper), and running a server (php, mariadb, redis, under termux), with occasional ssh (openssh under termux) and config changes (nvim under termux), and replying to chat apps (WhatsApp & Telegram).
The reason I am suspecting that the configuration is not optimal yet is, I still see plenty of unused space.
