[Hide]Clockwork and sprecovery supported. Initial boot took approximately 5 minutes. All apps visible in market synced correctly (remember with froyo not all apps will show in the market, this is likely not because of the ROM rather the apps dev needs to update). Sync and apps restored in 15 minutes.
Responsiveness and speed with stock kernel was very average.
After loading jdflg's 1.2 32 v2.0 kernel I scored quadrant scores maxing at ~1590. Not the highest I've ever scored, but nonetheless very good.
Battery life is very good. After testing for 3 days I have been getting between 15-17 hours with above average use.
No custom scripts. Other features include full screen browser, native options to change notification bar/clock/date, etc colors, optional music controls on lock screen, power control widget has added option to disable data to save battery (you can still make phone calls), reboot and reboot into recovery options, disable prompt asking if you want to reboot, ability to remove clock from status bar, display battery percent, display signal strength in status bar, ability to move all apps2sd including stock apps, additional messaging settings, built-in black list.
Bugs found were some app shortcuts not displaying properly on screens after reboot, and (not sure if this is a bug or not) when using fullscreen in browser and switching bookmarks you will see two bars until the new page is loaded. No solutions found.

I flashed the black bar mod with blue battery display and appeared that it wasn't displaying correctly. (I would be at 70% but it would show full
Felt as smooth as RC1 but not as fast as other ROMs (specifically succulent desire and kangerade). Still very very good. One other thing I noticed was that the screen display seemed 'off' when running quadrant, the numbers at the bottom were cut off.
The biggest bug is with the new superuser app that this ROM comes with. It does not work correctly with set on boot apps and apps that use widgets to click (such as cachemate). You will have to open setcpu after boot and toggle the speed. The solution is to flash the older version of superuser and it will replace the newer one. Everything works fine afterwards.
I gave it a 4/5. Based simply on performance it would be 3/5, but the additional features are simply amazing and nearly make it elite. It is still release candidate so hopefully the final release we will see a little better performance and more features bumping this ROM to elite status.[/Hide]

[Hide]Installation & Set up
Installation was very fast. The first boot took 2 minutes. Apps synced in about 11 minutes and download all but 2 apps, Pure Calendar and Ultimate Juice. The weird thing was, when I searched for Pure Calendar in the market, I could not find it. (I did not perform the market fix)I restored a version from Titanium Backup. I also restored my app data using TiBU. I tested the usual suspects, maps, Bluetooth voice dialing, and paid market apps. All seem to be working, and for some reason my maps is accurate again! Yesterday it was showing me what end of my apartment I was on. My maps location had been off by about a block for months. I used Launcher Pro to restore my screens and it was fast and easy, just replaced the widgets.
Speed and Performance with Stock Kernel
Running the stock 800mhz kernel for about a day, I felt it was very capable and fairly battery friendly. I did have to make some setting adjustments in order to achieve optimal performance, those changes are posted here. I also suggest flashing Superuser 2.1, it seems to play nicer with CM, and faster. Find it here. I did minus a half of a point due to the necessity of the tweaks and the fact that they are not explained in the OP for the rom. I was happy with the performance of the stock kernel, but admittedly I do not run 800mhz kernels. I need at least a 1ghz to keep me happy
