Requires:
1) a rooted GNex
2) a custom recovery
3) someone who knows what 1) and 2) mean.

I'm not really focused on getting the best benchmark results, as they mainly focus on raw throughput for CPU, GPU and memory, which anyone can easily top with some questionable hacks and a freezer. Not really real-world testing, imho. No benchmark app that I know of can effectively provide test results for latencies and responsiveness (but if anyone knows any benchmark which can measure that, please let me know). Reducing latency and improving responsiveness for the best possible user experience is, and will always be, my main aim for this kernel, whilst also trying not to wreak too much havoc on battery life.
CMPlus kernel is based on stock CM9 kernel with additional features that I think are useful. Initially built it for CM9, but also tested in other ROMs such as AOKP, ARHD, BAMF, BlackICE, CNA, Gummy, Liquid, etc. This kernel is mainly for my personal use, but anyone is free to download and use. Note that I am not obliged to accede to any/all requests, so apologies in advance for not answering all questions and requests, as I really, really don't have the time for thread management and really, really dislike the hassle of answering questions that have been answered countless times before.
This kernel has all existing features of stock CM9 Kernel (384MHz GPU, TUN, KSM, CIFS, NFS). All I've done are minor changes, so 99.999% of the credit deservingly goes to KalimochoAz, teamhacksung, CM team and of course, Google. And more so the devs listed below ...
Current version:
- Additional 200, 528, 1072, 1420 & 1500 MHz MPU frequency steps
- Disabled unnecessary debug options
- Enabled relevant ARM errata
- Optimized RWSEM & CRC32 algorithms (Ezekeel)
- SLQB memory allocator
- SIO I/O scheduler
- Optimized conservative, interactive & ondemand cpufreq governors (interactive as default)
- Alternative governors: Lazy & Wheatley (Ezekeel), Smartass2 (Erasmux) & Lulzactive (Tegrak)
- Removed powersave and userspace cpufreq governors
- Westwood+ as default TCP advanced congestion control
- Userspace voltage control (Michael Huang)
- Undervolted nominal VDD_MPU, VDD_IVA & VDD_CORE by 50mV
- Reduced regulator voltages to VAUX3 and VUSIM for reduced screen-on battery consumption
- Less conservative temperature throttling thresholds
- Fast charge patch (Chad Froebel)
- BLX: Battery Life eXtender, Sound Control, Touchwake, Vibration Control, Fsync Control (Ezekeel)
- User control of WiFi PM mode on sleep (PM_MAX default)
- Gamma Preset to control contrast levels
- Customizable startup script for controlling SmartReflex, Sound Control, BLX, Touchwake, Vibration, WiFi PM, Fsync, Gamma Preset and Color Control settings
- Screenstate modes to control settings for CPU Scheduler, Virtual Memory & Music Mode
- Other relevant patches from Omapzoom, Codeaurora & Android/kernel-common
- Compiled using a self-built Linaro 4.7.1 toolchain optimized for Tuna
- Applicable for both Maguro & Toro variants of Tuna (all sound kinda fishy to me)
- Koush's anykernel format, so does not modify existing ramdisk.
- Install in custom recovery
For real issues, please provide the following:
- ROM name and version
- Copy-n-paste dmesg & last_kmsg output to http://pastebin.com/ and provide URL
- What you were doing with your phone at the time 
In other words, help me to help you. Clairvoyancy and telepathy are a couple of skills that I don't possess ... yet ;P
I do this formasochistic tendencies fun, so won't accept donations. But if you feel the inescapable urge to part with your ill-gotten gains hard-earned savings, then why not donate to where it actually matters.

- ROM name and version
- Copy-n-paste dmesg & last_kmsg output to http://pastebin.com/ and provide URL
Code:
1. Start terminal emulator session
2. > su
3. # dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt
For reboot/freeze problem, replace Step 3 above with
3. # cat /proc/last_kmsg > /sdcard/last_kmsg.txt
4. Paste contents of resultant txt files to pastebin.com
5. Post pastebin URLs here in this thread for diagnosisIn other words, help me to help you. Clairvoyancy and telepathy are a couple of skills that I don't possess ... yet ;P
