Default any problem free gapless top ring users?

Is anyone in here running gapless top rings WITHOUT problems (ie no oil consumption or smoking problems)? If so, what gains/losses, did you realize over conventional rings? Please post all known relevant info on your setup, including ring tension, ring thickness, second ring type (reverse twist, napier, whatever...), and anything else you can think of.

Those WITH problems, please post the same info (power gains/losses, set-up info) along with the exact problems you are having.
