I still think CM8000 ( default settings ) will do just fine in the SSDF list in the end ; time will tell . I remember similar discussions about CM6000 and its settings where the only setting which ever was proven to some extent to be better than the default settings was to raise the "selective search" which is understandable as the hardware had changed very much since the release of CM6000 . Why should Mr deKoning release a setting which is deliberately weakened :-) ? Simply makes no sense . pete
