I'm running ART now, on CyanogenMod. When I first selected ART I got a warning that it was not CM approved and horrible things might happen so naturally I had to backup and then switch to ART to satisfy my curiosity.
Everything works just fine so far. On Clean ROM the extended boot menu didn't work, on CM it works as it should.
The reason I'm now on ART and will stay there is to try to overcome any problems that may arise since Dalvik is set to vanish from Android very soon.
I use dalvik cuz when I wipe caches it's take hella long time to boot on art

Just to follow up, everything I can find on the net at the moment indicates ART should/does improve battery life. It's less of a strain on the CPU so that would make sense.
Scott you know a hell of a lot more about these devices than I ever will (and probably more than most of these internet sources) so if you say it's the opposite I'd be inclined to believe you.
Art should not affect kernel. But I aslo see the gians you see. The keyboard is just one. Wake time to home screen is another, launching any app is amazingly faster.I just switched to ART... Been about a week and I notice that there is no more lag when opening my keyboard and no lag when swyping... Only app I see crash so far is quadrant but no biggie....
Does ART effect the kernel possibilities? I want to try faux again but don't know if it will cause a reload of everything if it breaks

A man after my own heart!
Ok, I think the majority of people will still be rocking dalvik.
And it does break a couple apps.
I think Google is really on to something though...
