The rom runs smooth all across the board on everything I throw at it EXCEPT for the browsers while Sense 2.5 is enabled. While I remember 2.1 on other roms being about the same, I can't comment on the 2.1 build for this rom as I've not tried it yet. When I need to browse the web I usually disable Sense first to save me the memory errors.

Also its VERY important for the VZW guys to use the PagePool_Changer and change the page pool anywhere from 4mb to 8mb before flashing. The current setting is 0 which allows the OS to adjust accordingly as its needed which at times can get up to 20+mb, robbing us of all our oh so PRESCIOUS ram.

At boot I am usually left with around 25mb to 35 mb with Sense 2.5 enabled and 45mb to 55mb without. I've really felt the need for a tweak on the homescreen somewhere that will enable/disable Sense at the press of a button. Maybe that could be something I could take on with a little help from others fluent in C++ language?

Now FORTUNATELY for me with Verizon, I get excellent coverage and find myself hardly ever dropping below 60% on signal here on the Gulf Coast. Connections all seem to work fine with this rom. For the little memory I DO have with this version of the Touch Pro, this rom is actually really great for it. One of the best I've tried yet, (and I've tried MANY memory hogs trust me) second only to DCD's Herman Rom 2.30. While DCD's Rom provides absolutely the best performance possible in my oppinion for the Touch Pro, its also completely clean, a basline rom lacking all the excellent utilities and modifications this rom provides.

To sum it up, its WELL deserving of all the positive feedback that it CONTINUES to recieve.
Have you tried Skyfire?
Google eats a lot of memory usually.
