There are so many new roms now. Right now I'm using the latest CM11 from @whoshotjr2006 here http://androidforums.com/threads/un...1957s-camcorder-hq-youtube-green-tint.908555/ I'm having so many issues with random app closures and system lag. I'm not sure if it's apps like Facebook or just not setting up the system correctly. I'm also not sure if it's because I'm running apps off my SD card with a fstab tweak. I want to know what is the best rom and setup for this device. My min requirements is being able to run at most two apps at the same time (like pandora music in the background with whatever app in the foreground) without crashing.

Give Slimkat Remix a shot. From user posts that I've seen said it probably ran the best.
I'll give Slimkat a shot. It seems though I'll set up a rom and it will act speedy enough till I start installing apps then it goes downhill from there. Just ran the latest Stock debloat rom ZV6 V.5 and just trying to use Pandora radio with the stock browser (or any other app) Pandora would quit playing after a bit.

Try medium in kernel adiutor should slow down the killing of (Pandora) apps running in the background I have mine set to aggressive for performance I had a similar issue i ended up putting a swap partition
Swap on my SD card slowed down things and even when it did help I worried about the SD card dying and all my data suddenly going bye bye.

In my opinion you'll probably have a new phone before the SD card dies I always use Sandisk Ultra Plus Class 1 micro sd cards in every device I have never had a problem with any of my micro sd cards depending on what class SD card u have does affect performance as far as reading speed and writing speeds
