Thanks for the review YankeeDudeL...however I am going to have to respectfully disagree with your assessment
Being a tester for Liquid...I'm biased.
Having said that...I've been flashing ROMs since the days of "SholesMod" and LFY v1.5 has got to be the fastest, smoothest ROM I have ever used. Even tonight I was showing my phone off to a couple of people that own Droids. They were COMPLETELY blown away by the speed. One guy was playing with my phone and was swiping screens, opening apps, and generally just going though the ROM as fast as he could to see if he could get the phone to stall. After a couple of minutes he gave up throughly impressed.
A few users have reported performance issues like the ones you described...Let's just say were not looking at the same phones!
Now, I mean no disrespect...I know you to be an honest guy so I believe you are reporting what you are seeing...I'm just not seeing it (at all).
Between the ROM's optimizations (based all around speed) coupled with Slayher's kernels (based all around speed...especially with compcache enabled)...something must have gone a muck with your phone
