Ok so here's the quick rundown on how I'm faring with Bugless Beast.
I've got my Droid overclocked to 800Mhz. I use the profiles support in SetCPU and my Droid's clockspeed goes down to 250MHz in sleep/standby. When its charging the CPU goes up to 950MHz.
The performance on this thing is INSANE at 800MHz. It's also perfectly stable too, I watch the temps and they get no higher than at default clock. I really think TI took the safe route when they were figuring out yields, and Motorola was trying to play it safe as well in choosing the clock.
Probably because it's all so relative, at the time Droid came out it was a behemoth. When Nexus One came out it sorta gave us all pause, but in truth I think this OMAP 3430 has so much untapped power, and that Snapdragon has more of a rival than we all thought.
Anyhow, my battery life is actually improved in this situation. A day of moderate use in this configuration leaves my battery at %50. I can't really quantify how it use to run, but it seemed like a daily charge for my usage habits. My habits haven't changed, in fact I probably used this ROM more than I normally abuse my Droid, and now it's every other day that I need to charge.
When using the 3D gallery, the framerate increase is noticeable. Everything seems more responsive and loading times for apps have gone down dramatically. When loading movies in the act one video player it seems more responsive and quick to scrub through the movie.
Also, when using a home replacement like Slidescreen, the transitional effects, for example when loading the Google Finance app from the screen using it's overlay effect it is smooth and quick.
The drawers seem more smooth, and the CPU is fast enough at this speed to make the translucency effects smooth as well.
What baffles me is how poorly coded the homescreen must be. Even at this high speed swiping left or right on the homescreen there's still a stutter. On the Sense UI on a Hero or Eris you can swipe completely smoothly across your screens, it's all fluid, and that's on hardware that's a full generation behind.
So Droid 2.1 update? Pfft, I could care less. Nothing in that interests me at all.
