Seconded.  It uses ck-patches (largely for swap prefetch and the like), and the CFS scheduler isn't nearly as bad as it was.  By that, I mean I've been very happy with it, and after hating it so passionately in the past this is quite welcome.

I'm just sticking with the last ck kernel until mainline reaches at least 23.2 The current one is stable and fast. Why upgrade?!?

stock -ARCH here too. it has become my only kernel since beyond died. it was only used as a "backup" kernel back then

Re: Which kernel (patchset) to use now?

At the moment stock -ARCH kernel recompiled with SLUB and some other configuration tweaks.  I used to need the suspend2 patch for my laptop, but since then I've learned how to configure hibernation without it, so I no longer need it.  Once SLUB becomes the default I will just use the default kernel.
