Default 3GS Jailbreak functionality poll

Ok, those of you who have already jailbroken your 3GS, let us know if and how much it's affecting the phone as far as battery life and lag.

Thanks!

i really don't see a lag at all..i also double checked to see if there is one or not.....my buddy had a 3gs and wasn't jail broken we started the phone at the same time both came to the lock screen on the same time as well....then started hero of Sparta...loaded the same time as well...there literally is no noticeable lag...i have 16 gbs of music put on so my ipod is a bit slow but nothing bad or noticable just chokes when i scroll thru the songs i have...


as for the battery life...i really don't know if it's affected since the battery life isn't all that great for the 3gs

There has been no lag i've seen so far. It amazes me how fast Cydia loads.

That could possibly change if there is a fix for Winterboard. As many claim it to be one of the culprits of lag.

No lag here. I'm keeing an eye on memory and it's never dipped below 110mb even with heavy use. On my v1 I was constantly below 20mb which made a lot of apps very slow or inoperable.

^ That's awesome.
Can you post a screenshot of the status bar w/memory?
