So I rooted with wugfresh toolkit and then flashed the latest Franco kernel. I now have a tablet that takes 1-2 seconds to wake from sleep...
Any ideas or experience?

I've experienced this myself and read this is common with the latest Franco version r77. You can try a different kernel, or the last version of franco r76. I don't have the issue with m kernel or lean kernel.
Be warned if you flash r76 after r77, my tablet had to optimize apps (which took forever since I had ART enabled) and I also lost root and had to re-lash superSU.

after 4.2.1, i cant find a kernel that will work with stock rom that allows overclocking?
Motley
I really like Metallice's motley kernel, located in nexus 7 android developemnet.
Edit: Click my Sig pic for a link
trinity kernel works fine too
I'm loving the trinity kernel myself! It is blazing fast at 1.7Ghz. (gets a little warm but other than that it is just awesome) No issues so far using stock 4.2.1 ROM
Stock ROM, as in not rooted? If you are running a custom 'stock' ROM, as in you flashed it to your device than any number of good kernels will do what you want.
But at a minimum you need to be rooted and have a custom recovery installed.

I'm coming from using a Nexus S for two years where I did a lot of ROM and kernel flashing. So far, the N4 has been solid and I haven't found a reason to root it or flash a new ROM yet. For those who have rooted and flashed a custom rom, what are your thoughts? Any notable improvements over the stock rom/kernel?
I asked this question here as well.
Pro's of rooting; adaway, better toggles, aosp browser. (watch paranoid android for buttonless navigation)
Cons of rooting; less social life due to flashing things constantly.

I have had also used nexus s for 2 yrs,its a small phone compared to this I remember friends telling me nexus s is a big phone. I am also proud owner of nexus 4 for 2 weeks
My nexus 4 is rooted, before arrived I had all setup on my PC all the drivers, adb, clockwork, it was rooted before I opened the box
Its rooted mainly because of ads, i hate ads, and firewall, and titanium backup, few network tools...
I had flux kernel to try changing colors.
I have stock kernel and rom now and planing to flash AOKP JB4.2 v2 when it comes out.
I would root install a kernel of your choice to get better battery life. I'm on PA with Franco r31 and get over 4 hour of screen time. O. Stock , my screen time was under 3 hours

Go for it. If you like stock ROM then just flash kernel since franco and others have patch the wake lock bug that was killing battery life. I wouldn't go for a few custom ROM out there since it is unstable and could be unpleasant to use. Those ROMs are usually the ones with Linaro optimizations. If you want stock experience with customization, then try AOKP. I'm very impressed with AOKP so far.
Just got my Nexus yesterday, came stock with 4.2.2 and with those little nipples on the back of the phone that came in the newest revisions. I immediately rooted, flashed the newest PA and Morfic's kernel, and I've been told that I sound like crap on the phone.
I came from the Galaxy S2 running JB, which had a call echo problem, does this phone, or some of these ROM's have this issue, or is it Kernel related?
I am on CM 10.1 M3 with Franco Kernel nightly 122 and my in-call sound is quite OK. No buzz or echo problem. Has Nexus few months already and first day procedure was the same as yours - root, custom recovery, CM + franco kernel.
My Nex is w/o nipples and rev. 11.
Thanks

Kernels no longer work for me. I was running _Motley's build 49 kernel and the stock ROM for a few months and never had any issues and had excellent battery life. Then I decided to flash PA and _Motley to give Halo a try and noticed my battery wasn't all too great. I then nandroid back to my previous setup and then my battery life went to ****. Android OS was my biggest drain so I reflashed my stock rooted ROM and kernel and still had the same issue.
Then I flashed Faux's reset kernel and was stuck in a boot loop but was unable to get past the Google logo. Flashed another reset kernel, can't remember who's, and everything was fine. Android OS wasn't an issue anymore but my battery life went back to being mediocre. So I tried flashing other kernels, _Motley's included, and Android OS would still be on top.
So for some reason, only the stock kernel is working for me. Any ideas why? I'm about to just restore the factory image and start over again. I heard PA uses a custom kernel from Franco so could that be why I'm having issues?
Edit: I also fully charged my battery and left it overnight unplugged last night and went from 100%-64% in 8 hours

Just got my nexus 4 a few hours ago and i already have unlocked and running PA3.91 but since i come from the nexus s forums and i have been using @bedalus's marmite kernel for so long i have to ask, any smooth kernels out there(for 4.3 bootloader)?

I'm no expert in advising you but I personally use semaphore kernel and I really love it! Franco is the best for saving up juice in your phone! And if your a extreme overclock fan then faux must be your choice! For gaming matrix kernel or ma1rix kernel is the real deal. Note i guess they are still working on 4.3 bootloaders so just check their threads out and confirm that it is for 4.3 bl or not.
