Root Phone running poorly after root?

[Bowslayer]

I apologize in advance for my lack of knowledge.
I assume I maybe missed a step after rooting. My phone seems a little buggy today after rooting and flashing GB this weekend.
Was i suppose to do a factory reset After the GB. I did after I SBF'ed Froyo and only wiped Cache after GB because it was Bootlooping.
Also my launcher redraws everyting after removing from Car and Home
Dock. Even after freezing Car Dock and Dock services. Thanks and sorry again for stupid questions

I know the first time I tried to root, mine was terrible too. SBF'ing, clearing cache and factory reset did the job. I also found better success rooting with Visionary + instead of z4root.

Even though some people choose not to, I always wipe cache and wipe/factory reset after applying a major update like a Rom or an sbf; it avoids a lot of headache later on

Should I do this thru DX Bootstrapper or stock recovery? I wont loose root?
I dont mind doing factory reset. Not that big of a deal in my opinion. Better to do it Right rather than Whine and Moan later.

When I sbf I do it through factory recovery, when I apply a Rom I do it through bootstrap/CWR.

Thanks. I kept trying to get into Clockwork recovery and was getting a black screen. I forgot to uncheck Debugging (per Droid X Bootstrapper).
I just did a Nandroid backup. If do a factory reset do i just re-download Dx Bootstrapper and restore Everything? Im getting anxious to try a ROM real soon I think(after a little more studying of course).
Also hate to be a pain but do I need to flash that Deodex file for ROMs or just to apply themes? Sorry for the constant questions. I am trying to read as much as I have time to.
