I'd 100% agree. Google Now has been the biggest culprit for poor battery life on my device, as I've tested to verify numerous times. Limiting the amount of synced services helps, but wooo, GNow causes an insane amount of wakelocks and CPU awake time, while just sitting overnight.Battery life is notoriously terrible on Jelly Bean. Of all the ROMs and kernels I've tried since JB, I haven't had one come close to what I used to get on ICS with AOKP + LeanKernel. If you're really serious about battery life, start disabling things like Google Now that are always checking for things to show you. Turn off sync for whatever you don't need (or at least slow down the sync frequency).
