Yep, some people say they don't notice it. I did, moved back to 4.1.2, forever happy.
For me it is faster than 4.1.2. I'm using Hellybean w/ devil kernel.

And your signature says Something else
I switched from 4.2.2 back to Cyanogen 9 and it's running just as fast and reliably as Gingerbread.
I am in 4.2.2, with Jelly Shot crespo ROM and Marmit kernel - so smoth and fast. Except Gingerbread, the battery consumption is also better.
4.2.2 is better !!!
Running on a smooth CM 10.1 with Air Kernel. Fly's most of the time with a few hiccups here and there

My Nexus S also can't handle the awesomeness of android4.2.2
Me Gusta!
Carbon is nearly as smooth as Jellyshot (really hard to match them) but is so fast and virtually bug free (I haven't encountered any yet).. On benchmarks it tests higher for me than any other 4.2 rom (not that this means too much). And is still full of features... And best of all it is great with battery life.. I installed it on less than 50% (granted not heavy useage) but I got more than twenty hours (six of those I was asleep).. I am charging it up and will see how it does on screen time..
On full charge (Devil Kernel {ondemand/deadline 1000/100) over 48 hours!!! semi-light usage
Check out GamerzROM, based on CM 10.1 and it's awesomely fast...
Im not quite sure, CARBON ROM is pretty snappy, its up there with AOKP
I find helly bean pretty smooth...smother than ICS at least!
Do you guys think carbon is smoother than helly bean?

I find it smoother, the initial release, the nightlies are a bit buggy and not as fast.. Jellyshot is the smoothest rom, but not as fast as Carbon, but it's boot time is faster..

I have an updated list of Roms, all based on my testing and are not meant to be disrespectful to developers as all Roms have their own merit based on each user...
(Each rom is tested on stock kernel and Devil kernel using Antutu for benchmarks)

Nearly, it tests on antutu within a couple hundred point difference with Devil kernel, but is nearly identical stock...
I think that the new JellyShot 4.5 is faster than the Carbon, I tested both with marmite 7.3 because the >8 versions eats too much battery

Just want to know what people are running on their phones. Im a flash freak and flash roms practically everyday, but i really want to find a rock solid, stable rom and kernel i can stick to.

I've always gotten good battery life from Pete's roms. I do alot of internet stuff, as well as the normal few calls and texts during the day. I have no problem going an entire 15 hour day without hitting the charger.
Wow, that pretty good battery life. Ill be sure to give it a go. Thanks everyone for there input helped a great deal.
Cyber-GR mod v7 with Matr1x kernel 15.5. Its stable, smooth and fast (at 200-1200 mhz smartass v2). That's my main ROM & Kernel, but I'm always trying out new roms.
The new 4.0.3 MIUI roms werent impressive to me. Not smooth, and fast enough :/.

Which is faster.. Alfrix UNofficial CM9 or Dhiru's CM9??
I am currently using Dhiru's CM9.. i think i might switch to Alfrix's because of these three reasons...
* It's Odexed (which is faster than deodexed rom)
* It has an overclocking feature
* Have Governors and Schedulers
dhiru's cm9 is what i prefer !
lol those 3 reasons? Dhirus CM9 also has those. just flash cm9 kernels.
CM 10 is a lot faster. I'm using it now.

Using Android, don't afraid to flash ROM, install CWM & backup, then feel free to test new ROM.
Jb is stable, in some way. It's fast, smooth and the camera take good pictures(I tried it during a cookout and it was all fine).
Moreover nobody's using bluetooth except when it's broken :laugh:
I want a stable rom and kernel. The camera should be able to take 8MB pics and capture 1080p video. If possible I want JB or ICS.
please help. I have been seeking for rom and kernel for a long time. The developers does not give understandable specs like openly for me...

official CM 7.2 is my recommendation.
ICS and JB are not fully working and since you want a stable one I'd stay away from those.
Alright then I guess I need to tell like '' the most stable ROM and Kernel among the JB and ICS. Guys please help me! Camera should work 1080p

The only way that will work is on Adampk's and Mazout360's CM10.1 Rom Build 7 which is the only rom that has full HWA to make the camera work properly. Downside is that the Radio (Cellular Network) will NOT work. This means no calls, SMS, data, etc. Anything to do with your Mobile Network will not work.

If you have problems with Faux kernels try Trinitys. I could never get Faux's kernels to play nice with my phone and while they ran smoother the random reboots, black screens and having to keep phone from sleeping just killed it for me.
This was oh stock voltage as well.

guys I think the best rom is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420972 that one for me! At least the developer tells the specs of the rom clearly... I just did not understand how to install v6supercharger, it seems hard to do.
I currently have KashaMalaga (jb 4.1.1.) with harsh kernel 1.4 GHZ everything's looking pretty stable except camera ( no 1080p ) well I'll go with that for a while than maybe install above rom and hopefully v6supercharger
I installed Hellfire cm7 GB 2.3.7. with v6 supercharger. All fine but screen sensitivity is really low.

I'm using CM7.2 stable with Wolfscript and Harsh kernel and my phone is flying! Very stable and very fast (after Wolf script), though battery life has taken a hit after running the script.

I just jumped ship from the galaxy nexus to the Verizon SIII and finally got it unlocked and rooted. So I worked my way over to the development section to pick out a rom and and kernel but was overwhelmed by the amount of choices. So I thought id ask the xda community's opinion on what rom and kernel I should choose?
My only requirements are:
1. Must be stock jellybean (not a huge fan of touch wiz)
2. Performance is a huge factor to me
3. Overclocking options (CPU, GPU, Memory?)
4. Customizable options
Thanks guys!!
AOKP jb-mr1 build 4, lean kernel experimental build 2. Best combo I've used.

Does Wifi Tether work well with Carbon and that kernel? I am running a nightly from CM 10.1, seems to be the only one that has wifi tether working well with 4.2.2
---------- Post added at 04:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:39 PM ----------
I really like Liquid Smooths new rom for 4.2.2. Tons of customization and overclocking. The RC1 came out on Feb 14th and the only issue I had was with Wifi Tether. Once that is fixed I will be using as a daily driver.
You'll probably want to use CM10.1. Has the most up to date fixes and considering this isn't a nexus device there are some issues out there, and the less you have the better. MROM seems like a good choice as well though I've never tried it. CarbonROM had some issue with changing the notification/battery light color (it was broken) but idk if that's been fixed yet.
Another heads-up on the performance side: though AOSP performs much better than TW, it scores significantly lower than TW in certain benchmarks. Do not be alarmed, Samsung is cheating those scores by optimizing databases for those apps.

My current daily driver is carbon ROM with ktoons kernel.

Eclipse Rom! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136671
I use Paranoid Android 3.1 and lean kernel 2.7.3 which lets me over clock to 1.9ghz . The rom has lots of updates and features as well.
AOKP jb-mr1 build 5
-Overclocking
-Themes
If you plan to try multiple ROMs, I'd stay with either a 4.1.x base or 4.2.x base. If you toggle between 4.1 and 4.2 your folder structure is going to get messed up (ie sdcard/0/0/0/0/.....)
PA
I swap between PA3.1 from Notta and MIUI from Strumerjon
I gotta say, the PA builds from Notta have been solid for a while.
Everything that I've tried has worked.
RootBox
I can't believe nobody has mentioned RootBox! Tethering works out of the box you can theme almost everything and it's insanely fast and stable. Highly recommend it!

My wife's phone is100% stock and still has small bugs, freezes, and other issues.. So a 100% stable jellybean is a myth.. Carbon tests faster than Gamerz, but isn't as smooth.. I am using Thinkingbridge and am nearly as fast as Carbon, but haven't had any bugs (yet).. The latest Devil kernel is fast and stable at stock speeds, but I find over volting it when over clocked is better than stock voltages (on my phone).. At stock voltage when over clocked I have had random reboots, but not when over volted... Marmite is also fast, but I haven't found a stable over clocking method for it.. Both deliver good battery life and performance on any compatible rom...

Each ROM is different and reboots are caused by tons of possibilities either kernel or ROM, and overclocking and using tweaks/mods only increase these possibilities...
I've tried Carbon but have had a couple bugs in previous builds.. I'm testing the latest Carbon and it feels nice and no issues thus far
Thinkingbridge is fast and stable and I had no bugs or other issues..
And yes, Devil is my favorite kernel..
Also if you use devil tools or similar app, you can overclock the devil kernel to a fairly stable 1512mhz (live oc 108%). Not recommended for long periods of use!

i mean what is better than gamerz rom and fast and stable FOR LONGGG USE like till key lime pie is out whats the most stable and fast rom and what kernel to use with is
try jellyshot with marmite. i have tried every rom and for me is the fastest and most stable rom
Jellyshot + marmite 7.3 is 100% stable but does not have many mods, carbon + marmite is very fast and has a lot of mods
I was just using the old 4.1.2 Hellybean with a current Devil kernel and the experience was very nice, stable and smooth.. the battery life was also quite good, averaging around 20 hrs with 5 hrs screen time!!
