Ok, so even Android 2.2 isn't a silver bullet ;-).
After using it for a while, I had to turn of JIT-compiling, because it made my phone .. well .. run slower. The only reason for that I can think of is a lack of internal memory. Binary code simply is larger - and thus uses more memory than bytecode does, and my two year old G1 - being the first Android handset - hasn't that much RAM (around 74 MB, compare that to the myTouch and iPhone 4 having 512 MB).
Still, it's an amazing system. A state-of-the-art Smartphone OS running quite smooth on quite old hardware. Thumbs up for Cyanogen (and a $10-donation).
