This leads to the question: How soon until I can use Art as my daily driver?

I've been using ART as my daily driver since it was released.

It took Whatsapp two weeks to issue an update that made it work with ART. Nothing else and nothing since has posed any problem. In fact, I forgot I was using it until I saw your post.

I've been doing the same with spectacular results, although it's possible that some of the camera crashes (and maybe the IMDB crash I get from time-to-time) are ART-related.

They are not. I'm still on dalvik and the camera crashes and frequently uses 100% cpu in the background.

It is perfectly stable now and almost all common apps are compatible.

In Android.Next it seems, as Dalvik was already disabled on the visible source code.
