I'd like to improve by score in the benchmark category but to get nearly TWICE as high seems impossible. I was thinking maybe a few percent...

edit: it will be impossible to test stability

The SPB Benchmark score is just a number used to compare devices based on the amount of time it takes to perform a series of tasks. If you take a look at the 'Benchmark Examples' in the OP you will see a breakdown of the scoring. I agree it is peculiar that MalROM scores so high, but if you look at each of his entries, you'll notice that all of his ROMs score high in the SPB Benchmark score.

Anyhow, I'm glad like the thread and the results. Your Baseline 002 ROM almost swept the category, if only MalROM didn't get such high marks in SPB Benchmark...
