This is just to help out those who are wondering what the majority of other xda members are using.
SmartassV2
Ondemand
conservative
Are so far peoples favorite governors
smartassV2 on Doomkernel for GB, works beautifully with sio scheduler, a great combination for our Arcs

Since ICS, Sony has implemented Interactive in stock kernel, so I use that and it seems to be helping a lot overally.

doomkernel + smartassV2 + noop for stock GB rom.
It's the best. no doubt about that.
No option for stock?
I mean surely that would be the most common answer, surely?
DooMKernel v4 ICS, SmartAssV2, SIO. Works like a charm.
Normally interactiveX, but on ICS it doesn't go over 1017MHz
Using ondemand atm untill that bug is fixed

I noticed that as well when I used CPU Spy so now I just OC with smartassv2 !
Atm I'm using brazilianwax, very smooth and fast andit doesn't stay at one of the highest frequencies like lagfree.
But lagfree is also nice
EDIT:
Using lagfree now.
I have the smallest lags with that governor. Well, performance has even less but that can't be a daily driver

Can someone please explain the differences between the i/o choices. What do they do.
What settings are best for keeping good battery life and performance.

Besides smartass governor what is the next best setting to use?
This is with GPA17 and Pete's modified kernel.

If you don't mind random wakeup lag I'd stay with smartass, ofc I can't tell you how BuglessPete did optimize his combo (ROM/kernel) in regards to a certain governor setting. My #1 is ondemand, #2 smartass.
I've been underclocking and undervolting and getting amazing battery using either ondemand or interactive, not sure what the difference between the govereners is, seems to me that clock speed and voltage seem to have the biggest effect on battery life, and performance wise I can't tell a difference between the different governers

I'm assuming this all holds true for when using SetCPU as well? I have it set to max 800mhz, min 100mhz and a custom profile for "screen off" at max 400mhz and min 100mhz, all "on demand". I'm on stock rooted ROM GRJ90, kernel is by the pete alfonso dude...
smartass lowers the cpu when the screen is off. if you're always turning the screen off/on, this can slow down the phone/cause instability.
ondemand is very stable for me
Anyone know why?
Oxygen 2.2.2, Smartass Governor, underclocked to 800mhz.
I've seen many people state that there was no appreciable difference from 1000-800 mhz.
Thanks.

Smartass is probably not ramping up the speed as moving the home screens is not taxing on the cpu. Thus your phone is likely running at your min CPU speed. Try setting a different governor or raising the min CPU speed.

Then it must be something with the oxygen ROM because I'm on CM7 and it doesn't make any difference smartass or on demand.

I just had another person in another thread swear that smartass was the best on Oxygen for battery life and performance. I'm confused now...
To be fair, I've experimented with interactive, on demand and smartass all at 800mhz and not noticed any difference in either performance nor battery life.

Why would my NS4G running Oxygen and yours running the same rom and settings behave differently?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G
General rule of thumb (for my phone anyway):
1200MHz, ondemand governor. Ondemand works the best on the NS :O

How's that on battery though?
After running at 800MHz, I really haven't noticed an appreciable decline in performance, but I have noticed decreased battery consumption.

Not all hardware is equal. My CPU may be able to run lower voltages than yours can. Your CPU may OC higher than mine etc. There could be a setting in a rom or kernel that your phone runs fine, but may cause mine to reboot.

I am using CM7 ROM and Glitch kernel together on the Verizon Fascinate and was just wondering what everyone is using for the I/O Scheduler and the CPU Governor with Voltage control.
I have mine OC'd to 1.5GHz and using bfq and performance.
that setup you are using will suck down battery in no time. Im running v13 from paid glitch app, smartass v2 with deadline and underclocked to 800mhz and get 5 hours of ACTUAL PHONE USE/SCREEN ON TIME and about a full day before needing a re-charge on an 1800ma samaung battery and the phone still flys. zero lag! You really dont need to run any more than 1 ghz, but 1.2ghz will give you crazy speed and still allow for some good batterylife. 1.5 is overkill.

Using noop/smartass the last day or so...seems to be running smooth.
Smartass never seems to go below 400mhz on my phone. I've been using OnDemand.
I haven't really noticed any performance difference with any of the IO schedulers. Probably because it's flash and not a disk based drive in the phones.

I do have it a little overkill, but I enjoy the speed when using some apps like games. My battery does last a whole day however with the 1800ma battery life, but then again all I use my phone for during the day is texting or VNC. I'm gonna try the smartass V2 and Deadline. Thanks!
I do quite a bit of gaming on my device (9mm, Dungeon Defenders, etc...). Overclock is set at 1.4 no UV, with absolutely no lock ups. BFQ and smartass yield the highest fps for me on V13RC.

Performance would be a bad idea over long periods of time. Essentially since it runs the phone at the highest possible frequency for 100% of the time, it stresses the CPU much more than any other option. This could cause overheating if used for too long, not to mention the toll on your battery. We all assume that it would decrease the life of your processor because it logically could, but that isn't a big deal sienc you'll likely be upgrading long before the processor would begin to fail regardless of what you do with it now.

Interesting, when I set BFQ and Smartass on mine I get force closes on the simple apps, for instance the internet browser or file viewer. But when I play games on it I dont get any force closes on the games.
Maybe try clearing data on voltage control & reflashing kernel. I have been running my current configuration on MIUI, CM7, and now Pool Party for the last 90 days or so with no issues.

Assuming you mean "safe" then yes over short periods of time it's fine. If you tried to run at a high clock on performance all the time you would probably get heat and battery life problems.

Hi,
I am currently using an Arc S with DoomKernel 18 (1.6ghz) + Arconium 7.0 on .62.
I've used NoFrills CPU to set max at 1.6ghz and min at 0.3ghz but when I used the app CPU Spy I see the following: 1ghz 15%, 249mhz 47%, Deep Sleep 37%.
How come my arc s is never running at 1.6ghz? Is this because it never saw the need to and could perform at 1ghz or is it because it is clocked in some way?
Usually it depends on the governor you are using.
After you set the processor speed, try to reset the timer in the CPU Spy, which might help.
