Root What the best custom ROM

[skrause5]

I have a nexus 6 and I was wondering what is the best custom ROM you have come across so far? I am looking for a good balance of speed and battery life.

If you like the stock ROM but want the balance of optimal battery life & performance,perhaps all you need to do is flash a custom kernel.
I'm sure the folks @ XDA-DEVELOPERS have a few to choose from:

Just be certain the kernel is compatible w/the version of Android you're currently running.

I'm using resurrection remix with the hells core kernel. Rez remix by itself will force encryption so flash a different kernel if you are not encrypted.

Give Dirty Unicorns a try. It is the best for me. Has a modified built in kernel and gets awesome battery life.
