Pretty simple, right? Also, what are you looking to get out of a kernel, OCing, better battery life? Batter bettery life?

Currently running Chad's 2.6.32.26 (11/28/2010 release). I like it so far, but I haven't tested it with a fully/bump charged battery yet. Seems to be on par or slightly better than the latest stock HTC. Charges really fast and no issues with lag yet.
Primary reason I swapped it out is for the alternate governors it provides and HAVS & Under Volting to help save some battery when its sleeping. I need all the battery life I can get without giving up the phone's snapiness.

Should I take it that the DInc still needs to be bump charged, regardless of ROM or kernel?

I am wanting to try Chad's kernal, but am afraid, it seems there are bugs with all of them.

My own custom built one. Because I can have exactly what I want for voltage/clock options, available governors, compiled modules, etc. and nothing that I don't want.
Ran king's kernels for a while, but his refusal to fix major bugs (even when pointed to the exact problem lines in the source code) pushed me away.
