I'm wondering if people are installing and giving reviews in the first 15 minutes. I have a stock 2.01 Droid and Helix is *not* fast at all. In fact, waiting for up to 5 seconds for screens is nothing that I call fast. Sometimes it is faster than others but there is a noticeable slowdown. And FCs may not happen the minute you install, but give it a few days running various apps and I've seen FCs that I've never had before for apps.
I switched to Home++ and it is definitely a lot more stable than Helix. The only thing I don't like about Home++ is that the app launcher takes up to 15 seconds to load all of my apps to be able to scroll. If I scroll before they are done loading, then BAM! FC. But this has been much more usable than Helix.
What I'm really waiting for is Sweeter Home 2 to get out of beta. This bugger is the end all, be all of home replacements. Nothing else even comes close to the capabilities of this one. It will be the new bar to which these other simplistic launchers will have to up their game to beat.
