On 1 May 2012 bought my first smart phone.... the Arc S (after reading loads of good reviews) first few days it was great and i down loaded close to 200 Apps... but now the Arc S feels very very slow and sluggish... it doesn't feel like it has 1.4 ghz cpu.
When try to swipe the touch screen it takes forever....
I've checked how many Apps are running in the background and there are loads (almost every one I down loaded)... I don't think the cpu is at fault but i suspect it lack of ram...as I have 44k left....
Tried to move loads of Apps to 8gb SD card but its no use Arc S still feels slow.
When the phone get hot thats when it also really slows down.....
Overall I suspect its too many apps trying to access to little ram = slow Arc S
According to - http://www.xperiablog.net/2011/12/12/link2sd-guide-never-worry-about-internal-memory-limits-again/#m...
The ram can be sort of increased by partitioning part of the SD card...
I am an IT pro and use to using Unix and Linux at root at work....
How do I get root access on the Arc S with out wrecking my warranty ?
Also how can I permanently kill those apps running in the back ground ?
are you sure about the root?

Create, add and manage Swap memory file without swap partition on SD.
Reconfigure if you must change swap size.
Android >= 1.6.
Need Root and kernel swap support.
NO Need swap partition on SD!
This program do not partition the SD card.
