Phantom Hourglass and mario kart stutter (some other games even force close, like Radiant Historia) but unzipping fixes it altogether.

edit: how does the trimming work? Does it not compress ressources internally, hence compromising the speed boost?
It cuts out any empty parts of the rom. NDS roms are always a fixed size, 8MB, 16MB, 32MB, etc. It cuts it down to it's true size with no negative effects.

What other NDS roms are there? It also works with gba roms. 100% compatable with DraStic, used it on all my ROMs.

Especially when they support extended desktop!(given you are using a device that has an on-screen navigation bar)

I Installed seeder and, sure it makes it a bit snappier, but, its real strength is when you install it on an older device such as maybe the Xperia play or a Desire HD.
edit: I also use Cyanogenmod 10.1(which is very nicely supported all-around and stable) and I use Franco Kernel which gives my tablet as a whole a major speed boost in whole, I cannot see myself using my tablet without it.
