I've you've never used ART runtime, you should try it. I'm using it on the latest CM11 nightly, and it sure does make a huge difference, especially in returning to the homepage and switching between apps. To do this, go to Developer Options>Select Runtime. Just thought I'd share this with anyone that wanted to try ART but was worried about stability problems.

Am using ART since a few months now on Stock Rom of Moto G and can tell there is a light difference in better performance.

ART is still under development. And real world performance is not very different ATM. AFAIK optimized dalvik may be faster ATM . Hopefully next release 4.4.3 will have more bug fixes and optimizations and faster ART as well .

I have enabled art before but im trying it again now and i cant seem to enable it. After the restart it didnt perform the "conversion" where in it converting all the apps. After the restart mine just look like a regular restart. And stays on dalvik. Does having a custom recovery affect it? I just installed twrp weeks ago.

By my side, i was not so comfortable with ART. Had lags switching between menus, and when an app was intalled from play it freezed. That never happens with dalvik

Personally I've had no problems with ART, and noticeably better performance. So much so that I tried out xposed, but deleted it because I wanted the performance of ART

    Why should I use ART if some of my Apps do not work?

    However, yes, it works much better
