Nexus 7 (2012) performance tips

[NSILMike]

I'm running Lollipop (5.1.1) and see significant performance lag building up over time since last reboot and/or cache partition wipe.  It only takes a few days to degrade.

Does anyone have any performance improvement tips to suggest?

I have to reboot daily.  It degrades after several hours use.  Gotta be a memory leak.  I have pretty much given up using my N7 1st gen in favor of my linux laptop or my 1st gen Moto G.  The Moto G is twice as fast as the N7.

Rebooting helps, but I still have to wipe the cache partition around once a week or so.

I guess I need to wipe the cache partition in mine.  How do I do that?

Jim1348 - I'm hoping I can post a link here: a step by step on how to wipe the cache on the N7 2012.

Thanks MartyH, saw this post while I was looking for an answer to my problem with email stopping. Seems to have worked, fingers crossed!

Oh dear, email has reverted to not working; so I'll have to keep looking for an answer.
