HOWTO:

Install the package on your custom firmware PS3 and run it. It finds the active superblock of the gameOS partition and do the necessary patches. Usually 8 percent of the memory is reserved, the app sets this value to 1 percent. The optimization value is set to 1, for minimize disk fragmentation. The changes are permanent. The changed active superblock is written to the HDD with the system fs umount of the gameOS partition.

Running the app again restores the original values, if desired.
