If you’ve jailbroken your iOS 12.0-12.1.2 handset with the Electra Team’s all-newChimerajailbreak tool and have been experiencing baffling sluggishness while using theSileoapp, then you might want to pay particular attention to the package manager’s latest update.
The Sileo Team hasannounced the release Sileo version 1.0.3for both Chimera andElectrausers just this evening via Twitter, an update that strives to boost Sileo’s performance by up to ten times for those who might be using more than 12 repositories at a time:

According to the official announcement, Sileo 1.0.3 incorporates each of the following changes:
Sileo v1.0.3:
– Improves the overall speed for users with a large amount of repos
– Improves New tab speed

– Fixes error with Fresh (not French Canadian) translation
– Fixes errors with Chinese translation
It’s worth noting that the Sileo Teamlaunched Sileo 1.0.2 just a few hours agoto optimize the Featured tab’s banner images for slower internet networks and reduce memory usage. These were attempts to speed up the app’s loading times on older devices, and version 1.0.3 continues to embark on this endeavor to streamline the app’s overall performance.
Thosejailbrokenwith the Electra Team’s Chimera or Electra jailbreaks will find this update in the Sileo app upon refreshing their installed sources.
Notably, LaughingQuoll and other developersare working on a new version of Sileothat will run on other jailbreaks, such as Pwn20wnd’sunc0vertool, and the Sileo Demofor non-jailbroken devicesshould soon be made available for testing for everyone else.
