Root Kernal Differences

I am using MIKG 2.9 ROM. I have installed Golden Monkey 1.1 and wanted to know what the differences between Golden Monkey and the Freedom Kernals?

People seem to like either or so I want to try them but not sure what to look for.

Thanks
 
I would suggest reading the OP for each kernel over at XDA. It will give you all the information about each.

It usually comes down to personal preference, but i always have good experiences with aggressive freedom.
 
the other issue is that every kernel will react differently on different phones. but whatever you are flashing always read the changelogs for that version of whatever it is you are flashing. but i copied the changelogs here for you. if you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
