I put little weight into "I just flashed last night or yesterday and have noticed the battery doesn't last as long" type of posts. I personally can't really comment on the battery life myself since my phone is usually plugged into a desktop cradle/charger while at work and at home.
Agreed on that battery life point. Mine dropped fast and I had attributed it to all the setup done yesterday anyway. So far today it seems pretty normal. While I do notice a lot of tweaks that I like I don't see much improvement with "system speed" versus tweaks that appear to improve apps. For example switching apps and screen doesn't appear any faster, but some HTC stuff does seem to run better. Also can't judge speed until the next day as well as it'll seem faster until everything is loaded and you have a more normal load.
I agree that it is worth the upgrade, especially if like me you polluted your phone from all those supposed fixes from back when the phone launched that didn't do much.
