Launcher redraws - how to prevent? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Anyone noticing launcher redraws a lot?
I'm running nova launcher with Flex's rom. I thought the supercharger tweaks are supposed to fix the launcher OOM priority (keep launcher from getting killed in memory)

I've tried Apex and Rosie they both have the same issue.
Any ideas? This is driving me crazy.
Sometimes it can take up to 4! seconds for my home screen to redraw.

[Q] How to get rid of lag in ADW Launcher?

Recently ADW Launcher EX has been behaving very laggishly when scrolling thru home pages. However, the app drawer is smooth as butter
Anyone experienced this lag before and solved it? I reverted to Touchwiz interface and it was buttery smooth, so I don't think it's a firmware issue
I'm using Desktop visualizer on top of ADW, FYI..
The only way you can get rid of lag is by uninstalling ADW launcher, seriously.

[Q] Which launcher drains the most battery?

Which launcher drains the most battery? I really like Launcher PRO but the App Drawer is forcing me to go to a different launcher. How's ADW launcher? Thanks!
A Launcher in and of itself isn't going to make a HUGE difference.
The Launchers that I've used in order of least (generally) to most battery consumption:
Gingerbread Launcher
Zeam
Nemus
Launcher Pro
ADW
Go Launcher
Regina (okay this one will likely result in a noticeable difference)
You can basically pick any of those and won't notice a deal breaking amount of battery use, with the exception of Regina. I'll be forked if I can remember all the other Launchers I've tried/have as well; 90% of the time it's Go Launcher for me.

[Q] Stuttering animations in custom launchers

Hello !
I noticed some annoying issue on my SGS2 (XXKI4 stock not rooted) with custom launchers (tried Go Launcher EX, ADW Launcher, ADW Launcher EX, Launcher Pro). Desktop switching and application drawer animations are noticeably stuttering (Go Launcher EX was the worst) - it's very annoying since TouchWiz animations are perfectly smooth. This issue makes custom launchers almost unuseable for me. I was thinking that this is launcher's issue but yesterday installed Go Launcher EX on my friend's HTC HD2 (Hyperdroid CM7) and it runs much smoother than on my SGS2 (almost like my touchwiz). My other friend which also has SGS2 noticed same issue and like me returned to TouchWiz. Is there any way to improve animations quality ? I've tried adjusting animation delays in Go Launcher EX and ADW Launcher EX - little improvement but not perfect. Any help appreciated.
Regards

[Q] Launcher slow when lots of icons/shortcuts?

Has anyone else noticed the stock launcher gets very slow/laggy when there are a lot of icons on the homescreens?
Try this: Fill one of the home screens completely with shortcuts to various apps, after each app try sliding between screens by dragging your finger across the screen, or try moving the icons around. after about 5 or 6 i find it to get slow, and after completing an entire row the lag is very noticeable.
Put all those icons in a folder and its back to normal speed. Anyone else notice this? are there any fixes for this?
Try apex launcher or nova launcher, adw ex, go launcher hd, go launcher ex, trebuchet launcher.
Stock launcher works well for me. I have Widgets and tons of icons n folders. No lag at all swiping screens and no lag at all with app launcher.
i have no problem with the app launcher just the homescreens have lag when i have too many icons.
You say with the stock launcher you have no lag? what version are you running and how many icons do you have on various different screens?

ADW crashing version 1.3.3.8

anyone else have this version 1.3.3.7/1.3.3.8 and it crashes after going to add a widget to the home screen? it doesn't crash EVERY time for me but it is pretty damn frequent enough !
edit: it mainly happens when trying to add beautiful widgets to the homescreen - maybe it's not an adw issue?
