lol think of it as memory...ive giving break down before... its basically like going from a 512 system to a 1gb or 2 gb ram.all you need to know is its a good thing..makes phone faster...way faster

pagepool lives in RAM and works like cache, low pagepool makes your device noticeably slower.
RAMdisk is a place to store any kind of files just like storage card, just not removable. It's a bit more volatile, shorting the battery contacts will remove its contents.
Program memory is where active, running programs and data reside just for the time being. It's blank right after any hard or soft reset.
the most important area for most of us is the area our device calls (a bit confusing) storage. It's where most cab's install programs plus their data and settings by default. It is normally limited to 14MB, by pulling unused EXTrom area to it, you can expand it to 30.5MB.
Still not much but the best we can do. If you don't know how to do this, there's a sticky.
Did I cover it all?

you will have to reinstall all the apps but you can use a program like pimbackup and backup all your contacts, texts, etc.

I am cause i asked a question dealing with the title and i guess noone saw it cause all the other topics being discused, anyway here it was....I got the new rom and did the battery thing. Is there a way i can check to see if i got the page pool part right?

[TweetyBear]

you can't check it from your phone. you don't change it, the rom is already changed with the new page pool. so as long as you take battery out and back in, it's all set and ready to go
