Thanks and apologies. I had wondered if getting a 1GB model phone would have been a significant advantage.

You can almost guarantee that a 1GB model will be better. The Optimus 2X does struggle with it's 512 mb, because 128mb is attributed to the GPU. Lukily, some kernels, like IronKrnl free some of that memory up and give it back to the CPU, but it's still losing 80mb.
Also, it's worth noting that, if you want to run ICS, if you look at the phones out that have 1gb of ram, you'll see they're all actually better phones- especially what Samsung make.
So, while the O2X is a cheap dual-core device. The best experience will come with something with 1gb of RAM, as it's much more likely to also get ICS. (Due in part because most 1gb phones have already had an announcement, and for it to be soon)
ICS is very hungry in memory. On my Asus Tablet running official, my 1GB RAM is fully used, as usual in Linux but at a higher level than in GB.
To run ICS correctly on O2X, you must use IronKrnl, the 48mb ramhack version is correct (means it steals 48MB to GPU, leaving only 80MB to it), and modifying memory killer values to a sort of aggressive profile.
Yea right, so this is why I had less free memory on GB. And now I have CM kernel on ICS. I doubt you actually tried CM9 alpha on O2X if you are talking crap like this about performance.

The browser in ICS works better even though we have 512MB. It always returned to where I had left. 512 and less is enough for full desktop environments on PC even.

See my sig and stop arguing. I run CM9 since first day Ricardo published SK0, and now running SK2 with latest Ironkrnl. Setiron himself admitted on Google+that ICS is a memory eater.
Dont know how much free memory we're talking about here but I'm on SK2 with original CM9 kernel. Using Adv.Task Killer from time to time and I always have around 200-240 Mb free memory. Just sharing my experience
Running CM9 aswell and its sooooo smooth, faster than any rom ive tried
OK, so what happens when you want to run Tegra games? (like Dungeon Defenders for example). A shame you cannot dynamically set the ram hack :-(

That's the real question... Free memory when phone is idle means nothing. Plus you have to consider the lowmemkiller values you have set, I personnally use aggressive values: 16 24 32 90 100 110 to free the most possible memory.
Many users report freezes with games that run perfectly on GB. The problem or ramhack is choosing the right value for gaming, it seems 48mb version is the best compromise. A 'on the fly' feature was not planned for the moment by Setiron in one of his G+ posts.

It does. In low memory situations ICS seems to keep running better and smoother compared to GB. If you get under 40mb free on GB everythings gets very slow, with ICS it seems to handle it a bit more elegantly from a user experience.
Please don't think I'm pesimistic here, I'm just going off the comments: Given that OEM releases tend to be bloated and memory wasteful, it's not looking great for an LG ICS release that is 'fully' working. If they pull it off and allow tegra games to run, then I'll be impressed
the official release from LG should be more efficient, and once you remove bloatwares, it should be quite a charm
Hi,
The Google Nexus S also has only 512Mb, and a certain amount of those allocated to GPU (though I don't remember how many), and ICS works like a charm on it... So I think it shouldn't be a problem on our O2X! :-D

It has the same config (128 for the GPU, 384 of available RAM) and works really fine.
Obviously a full gigabyte would be awesome.

I've seen other phones that will be released this Q1 or Q2 having 1GB of RAM whilst the Optimus 2X only has 512MB.
I myself have kind of got the feeling that 512MB's would be enough and that 1GB is unnecessary, but I would like your opinions, and maybe an explenation to why 512MB's would be enough?
Since Atrix won't be released in Sweden that pretty much leaves it to Optimus 2X or the Galaxy S2, but the S2 will probably be like 200 dollars more. Would that really be worth the money RAM-wise (other differences doesn't matter that much to me)?
I'm of the mind that 512MB will be fine for the forseeable future. If you consider that the most demanding apps are typically games, and the most impressive games (since GameLoft, Epic etc have signed on with nVidia...) will be developed to Tegra 2 specs, I can't imagine those Tegra 2 specs would preclude running on 512MB of RAM. Following that assumption, by the time 512MB of RAM isn't enough, you will probably be due for an upgrade anyway.
I'm starting to think that the only reason the Atrix has 1GB is because the WebTop mode runs well over 512MB in typical operation. Then, of course, the Galaxy 2 has a gig so that it doesn't look inferior on paper.
Just my conjecturous 2 cents.

Thanks for your reply! I also thought about the RAM being for the WebTop but then Samsung released the S2 lol.. I would probably agree with you that 512MB will be enough in at least the coming year or so, hell, you can almost run a game like World of Warcraft on 512MB RAM.
Maybe Motorola and Samsung are just putting in hardware that is ahead of the future to atract the customers that want 'the best'. Of course, they are probably slightly better but from what I understand it is kind of hard to fill up 512MB RAM which they also say in Anandtechs review of the Atrix.
http://www.anandtech.com/show/4165/the-motorola-atrix-4g-preview
If only LG could put in at least 768MB I wouldn't have to worry
Have to agree with Sjael about the 512MB of RAM in the Atrix being for the laptop dock. In that preview you posted in the benchmark tests the optimus came out on top of the atrix pretty much every time. So don't let the 512 MB of RAM detour you!
I would not mind 512MB RAM(Actually, you can use only 372MB of ram because of the android system)
512MB ram is not that small, and there is no app that needs more than 512MB.
I'm using Optimus 2X, but 512MB RAM was okay

Really ? Oh, this is a great news !
1GB is better than 512MB
but....... i think 512 is enough, also
Well we now have some empirical evidence...
The +64MB RAM kernel gives back 64MB to the user and it makes a *huge* difference to performance in general day to day use for me. I no longer need to use minfreemanager and my launcher and background apps hardly ever get shut down by the system now.
I used to be of the mind that 512 was enough (=372) but with +64 (=436) there's a world of difference.
So, in my experience 512 is a constraint.
Its not the 512mb itself being the limit here, its the way these 512mb are used and how Android is configured to manage the memory by the manufacturer - but yes more ram to work with are allways a benefit.
512mb is plenty in the HTC Desire which default has about 440mb for the user, while the LG only has 372mb (more ram allocated for video than the Desire perhaps ?)
Furthermore the default minfree setting in the Desire is configured to allways leave 140mb free, while the LG is default configured to only leave around 80mb free.
This cause the LG to run low on memory, needing the system to free up memory by shutting down apps that are preloaded, faster and more often than on the Desire.
The extra 64mb you free with the other Kernel can be configured either as more ram for preloadet apps or as just free ram - depending on how agressive you set the minfree setting. The result you get will be a combination of this - if minfree are still set to 80mb then the 64mb are just used to preload more apps, which you will feel as a benefit if switching to one of these preloaded apps, but wont feel as a benefit if you need to run an app that use up more than the free 80mb and which hasnt been preloaded. On the other hand you could divide it and set the minfree setting to 110 and let the rest 34mb be used to preload apps in, that way a running app could use more ram before it would need to shutdown preloaded apps.
I cant say which setting would be the best overall - but for certain the configuration of the memory works better in the Desire than the one in the LG - despite both having 512mb ram
since all the hardware specs are the same besides the atrix having 1gb LP DDR2 ram and the O2X/G2X having 512mb DDR2 ram, how does the O2X/G2X out benchmark the atrix in all the programs tested except for linpack and sunspider (linpack doesn't really count since it doesn't seem to play nice with dual core)?
here's the link to the benchmarks androidandme.com/2011/03/news/tegra-2-benchmarks-motorola-atrix-4g-vs-lg-optimus-2x
even though the atrix has higher resolution, someone did the calcluations:
The Motorola Atrix 4G is 540 x 960 = 518400 pixels
At 55fps * 518000 pixels = 28490000 pixels per second
The LG Optimus 2X is 800 x 480 = 384000 pixels
At 77fps * 384000 pixels = 29568000 pixels per second
29568000 / 28490000 = 1.038.
So the screen resolution explains most of the difference but the Optimus is still ~4% faster.
4% may not seem like much, but keep in mind the optimus 2x has half the ram.
There must be something I'm missing.
You can't really just compare screen resolutions like that. GPU drivers could be different. 4% is really not much. Ram doesn't really make a phone faster as such. It just let's it keep more stuff in memory so it doesn't have to be reloaded.
I know 4% isnt much but what confuses me is that its the phone with half the ram that gets better performance. And for computers the biggest performance boost possible is from ram. But i guess if they arent utilizing the amount of ram available thats a different story

The reason PCs with low ram get's slow is because in order to get room for more data/programs in ram they start using the extremely slow disk as 'backup' for the ram (swap). Android doesn't do that... It just closes old running programs.

Look, I think it's marginal and I do agree that the greater amount of RAM offers much better overhead.
But, I still disagree in principle and yes, I've used both. I can get both to lag - my perception was that the O2x seemed faster when it wasn't bugging out.
I still believe that bug free software will always seem faster on the O2x until the resolution performance hit can be resolved with qHD displays.

On gaming, of course O2X is faster. But with Gingerblur + some unwanted file removed, Atrix will be faster than O2X . No lag in 3D Gallery. Maybe your brother's Atrix run default ( with Motoblur ).

Free RAM is useless. Better app and memory management, well, that's another thing.
Android generally has a problem with auto-starting apps, IMHO. I go mad when I see an app running, while knowing that I didn't start it, don't need it today or any day soon. But it's there, just consuming phone's resources and annoying me. Damn.
Then I kill few of them, even though I read somewhere it's contra productive. That may be true in some ways, only it is not confirmed by subjective feeling which tells me the opposite. Phone gets faster

When I bought my galaxy s, it was on a 2.2 rom, though I don't remember the exact name. After a while, I flashed it with ZSJPK 2.2.1. Then, I went on to use JVP, JVQ and now, JVR. However, I felt that 2.2 and ZSJPK were both smoother and less laggy than JVP and JVQ. JVR is nearly as smooth as the two froyos, but it's RAM drops to very low levels, 70-80Mb after a day's usage. So, my question is, does anyone else experience such a thing in which their froyo roms were faster/less laggy? Or could it be that I somehow missed something when flashing the gingerbread roms? Thanks.
Why do you care about the RAM being "so low". Memory management works different in Linux than on MS systems. Android (or the underlying linux kernel) keeps apps in memory as long as possible to make a re-start of the app faster. As soon as the memory is needed by a different app, the memory is freed anyway.
My desktop with 4 GB RAM does the same on Linux: 64 MB are free, but if I take buffers and cache into account 1900 MB are available in case an application needs it....
I experienced a better battery life with smoother operation in every day use after installing GB (I guess first that was I9000XXJVK). This got only better with JVH, JVO, JVP, JVQ, JVR and now JVS.
I wouldn't care about the RAM, actually. But whenever my free RAM drops to below 80Mb or so, the phone begins to lag, because it has to close certain processes in order to start up the apps. Also, when the RAM is low and when I try to play certain HD games like the gameloft ones, the phone sometimes crashes.

An Android with free ram available is still much faster than an Android phone that continues to swap.
I've done tests in regards to this in System Panel. Plus on occasion whenever I clear my Dalvic Cache, I usually double my memory in System Panel, and my phone feels like "day 1" fast...

Yeah, it's beneficial to have free RAM rather than to have to free up the RAM when you need it. If you already have free RAM, running a new application is fast, but if you don't, you cpu needs to free some RAM first before it can load a new application, hence causing some lagginess. That's what I meant when I said that froyo seemed faster, especially after a day of usage.
I was using Froyo for quite a long time before giving a chance to Gingerbread. And I must say I regret I didn't give a chance to GB earlier as the phone is "flying" now. At least for me it was a good switch. When I bought my SGS it was on 2.1 (Eclair) which was a real laggy disaster.

If you play PC games you might notice an option called "vsync" and gamers on forums usually advice against turning it on without sufficient video memory.
It works about the same here I'm guessing, since project butter is the same concept as vsync.
