Best rom for battery life and speed?

I started out with cm7 but the battery life was so-so. I tried a few other roms and kernel variations but nothing really stood out. My last rom was oxygen 2.1.4 using the netarchy kernel, but I was only getting about 1200ish in quadrant and oxygen seemed a little unstable.
I went back to using the new cm7 RC and the trinity UV kernel and the battery seems OK and i am getting around 2700 in quadrant.
Are there any other rom/kernel combinations that i should give a shot?

Don't base the ROMs speed on Quadrant alone, Oxygen is really fast.
Don't let an outdated benchmark test decieve you.

Correction: Dont let benchmarks deceive you.
Benchmarks regardless of what it is is pointless.

It was more that oxygen seemed unstable on my phone. I might give it another go if the new cm7 battery life sucks.

You might want to check that out. CM7 battery is fine for me. Like I said, Netarchy's 1.3.6 kernel (or 1.3.4) is a NECESSITY. use that and undervolt it using proton voltage control or setcpu and use the suggested volts suggested by proton (-20 across the board)

My nexus is coming to me with infinity ill test between that and others

really? is it the best kernel matched with stock rom? but i already flash other custom kernel, what am i supposed to do? just flash matr1x over it or need to wipe cache/dalvik first? thanks!

My result with CM9 v2.1, T132-ICS-CM9 Kernel and CPU set to 200-1000 MHz, ondemand: 2257.
Of course the NS can't mess with an GN, but i'm still impressed how much performance you can gain with custom-roms and -kernels.

I'm running gingerbread deck and the matrix kernel with an overclock to 1.2...(not live oc) and got a score of sound 2966. Hopefully the official 4G build gets ics performance up a little more. I find it hard to believe my device on GB out preforms a galaxy nexus by so much...

Lol nice update like how they slapped a galaxy tab score with io hack at top to make this crap look legit.
At least now you can distinguish actual hardware scores from IO.and supports dualcore.
about the only legit thing to go by in this benchmark is the CPU
anyways enough *****ing
here is my score without any io minpluation

How are you guys viewing your results? Mine tells me that the next update will include the result browser due to different scores in this version?

you have to except the new shady test result message at the end of the test

im sorry, i really couldnt resist. the sight of this thread to me was like a cat sensing catnip

dont let the 880mhz in trinity teuv fool you, its as fast as many 1.2ghz kernels.

[competition] highest benchmark!

Hey all SGS owners!
Now it's time to see who has the best benchmark results
For benchmarking we use AnTuTu (I think it's the best for now).
So, you can overclock, overvolt, mod, build a cooler for battery...anything!
Post a screenshot of your AnTuTu result page and join the competition
Also if you want, it would be nice if you can tell also your rom,kernel, oc stats etc.
Good luck everyone!

Anarkia v.rx4
This is my benchmark.
ROM = Anarkia v.rx4 - AOKP B32 Galaxy S

Cm7.2 vs aokp m1 vs cm10

I've been running cm7.2 happily for a while now until jelly bean beckoned. I just put aokp milestone 1 and am immediately bowled over by the beauty of the latest android os. However, whereas I was getting a quadrant benchmark of 2400 with cm 7.2, now I get under 1000! The ui is smooth and buttery but the benchmarks suck. Has anyone else seen this? I'm considering cm10... How does that do on quadrant? Thanks for any information.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda app-developers app

Well to be honest who cares about benchmarks? They've never been an accurate representation of real world performance, and if it feels smooth then it's fine... I guess if a big number makes you feel better then to each his own, but I couldn't imagine going backwards from jelly bean now. CM10 is awesome, it just has a few minor differences to AOKP but it's really smooth so maybe it might bench better... but I don't know since I don't care about that stuff

Just ignore the benchmarks. Jelly Bean on the Fascinate (especially CM10) is faster than both Ice Cream Sandwich and Gingerbread roms.

Thanks guys.... Agree with that... No going back from jelly bean.

Thanks! As a matter of fact I just did that yesterday. Even better and smother and gives close to 1200 score on quadrant. Haven't found a single issue that bothers me! I also do the following for best performance:
1. Minfree memory killer set to optimum
2. Over clock to 1.2hgz
3. CPU governor set to smartassv2 and Zen
All of above with ROM toolbox.
Any other suggestions are welcome.

My 4.2.2 Kernel/Rom Benchmark thread

Sup guys, going to be making a comparison between different kernels running on different roms. I know that some of you are going to go on about how benchmarks don't mean anything, if that's you then simply disregard this post.
All roms will be tested with nothing except Gapps (not signed in), Titanium Backup and AnTuTu installed, TB and everything else will be closed before the benchmark.
3 benchmarks will be done, and I will post the average total score.

First of is PAC-rom (v20.0.0), by the developer aways who has been making a huge impact on the i9000 rom scene with numerous different roms.
