Well not so smooth for me I waited like 5-10 mins in the flash screen ( TWRP 2.8.6.1 ) and then gave up. Used the last 1014 build.

EDIT: Going to redownload and give it another try.

I just installed your ROM + open gapps pico on a clean flash with twrp 2.8.6.1

Everything is working except the MMS with stock app but it works with google messenger.

I tried to install boeffla sound app but your kernel doesn't support it.

Therefore as I saw that selinux was set to enforcing, I decided to install Archikernel to get benefit of boeffla sound. It works.

I did untutu benchmark :

Stock kernel 25300 (default settings)
Archikernel 28900 (default settings + touchwake enabled)

It looks like phone function is working fine without any delay but need time to be sure.

Xposed v75 sdk22 arm installed and working with my modules without any troubles.

I will try GPS tomorrow.

Good job mate. Thanks.

I didn't noticed any other issue. Now I'll try the GPS in few minutes and I will report.

Edit: one issue that I forgot to report but I guess it's from slimlp source about the launcher. When I press home button, it switches always between page0 and homepage. Not a big deal anyway.

Also, I forgot a detail which is important for some of us regarding the flash light. The torch is not switching off when the screen turn off. Good point in my opinion.

And the sad news is that the gps is not working. Setting selinux to permissive will not do much. It's a "no go" for me at the moment. I need working GPS. I will try next build if problem is solve.
