I haven't tried it myself, but you may do better to ask this in the thread specifically for CM, over in the Android Development forum.
I haven't tried it on my nexus 7, because I don't need to. The main reason I use CM on my other devices is to get the stock android experience. Which I obviously don't need to do on the nexus. There's a few cool tweaks on CM that I'd like to see ported over to stock android. But nothing I can't live without. I'd say if you're curious, give it a try. You can always go back to stock if you don't like it.

You can always do a nandroid. In fact you SHOULD always do a nandroid. If you flash CM and don't like it, just restore your nandroid and you'll be back up and running.
That said, back in the day I used to flash a different ROM every week. You needed to in order to get the most out of your phone. Nowadays, hardware and software are plenty good as is so there really isn't any need for a custom ROM from the performance side of things. So it really comes down to what features you would want. For me, I keep everything stock and just use Xposed and a few modules and I have everything I need, and still have the benefit of being stock and not having to worry about any bugs or glitches. I have 3 Android devices- Nexus 5, Nexus 7, and Moto X. All run stock Android (the Moto X is stock with just a few awesome add ons from Motorola), and all are set up with Xposed. I will likely never flash a custom ROM again. I know a lot of people share the same sentiment.
Just curious.. I don't see an Official CM 11 Nightlies thread anywhere for flo, but they exist.
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=flo&type=nightly
Just got my Nexus 7, something I should be aware of?
To the person who started this thread...
If you want to have the best of both worlds by having your stock rom and CyanogenMod on your tablet as well then install MultiRom. This can be done very easily as long as your tablet is rooted. If your tablet is rooted just open up Google Play Store and then download "MultiRom Manager". MultiRom Manager I believe was developed by the same guy who created MultiRom.
With MultiRom you are able to install multiple ROM's on your tablet and never damage or touch your stock ROM. Also MultiRom lets you choose at boot time which ROM you want to boot. Your stock ROM will be labeled "internal" and each rom you add/flash will have a unique name. One piece of advice though, anytime you install a new ROM make sure you let it boot up at least one time before going on and flashing another ROM. If you don't let it boot up you could damage the ROM installation.
MultiRom is truly amazing you would be crazy not to install it or try it out.
Hope it helps.

Later today I'll be trading my Galaxy Nexus for a One X. Of course the first thing I'll be doing is to dev unlock and get flashing.
I don't like Sense so ideally I'd like to use a CM10 based ROM or at least a de-sensed ROM. I would like something relatively stable. I've had a quick look at what's on offer here in the forums but unfortunately don't have time to read through all the replies to figure out just how stable the ROMs may be.
It would be extremely helpful if someone could recommend a ROM based on this information and maybe give me a brief outline of any bugs. Any information at all is helpful - it's a bit overwhelming coming to a new device as I'm sure many of you have experienced before.
Many thanks in advance.

If it has the same base, just install the new version on top using cwm and without superwipe. If it's a new base, superwipe is recommended and you'll also need to flash the boot.img.

But its still poor compared to the Sense camera...And if you used Onexed camera mod it is day and night difference, sadly but true.:/
I tryed al rooms and I can say renovate room 5.2.0 is the best, has the most feature included (camera mode, sound mode etc.) Also a excellent battery life combined with the faux kernal , after 2 hours and a half on standby ( checked 3-4 times the clock ) I still had 100% battery .and you can install without sense if you want .

-Sent from Marino's Galaxy Nexus-
I wait after a major update to Android until a stable ROM appears, so maybe every 3-4 months.
I was quite a big flashaholic for some time. But the thing was that I, while being on a different ROM, forgot how fast and smooth stock actually is. When you're using a different ROM, placebo effect takes care of the rest. Suddenly, 1 day of battery with 3h of screen time seems amazing, while in reality, stock can do just as well. And since I don't miss any of customization, I'm good. So, to answer your question, I'll stay with stock till I buy a new phone. No more custom ROMs, no more flashing. And I Iove it.

I used to go from one ROM to another but finally just settled on CyanogenMod. Now I must admit I dirty flash all the time, I ,mean I flashed Cm10.1 over a stock ROM with no issues it ran perfectly. I haven't used Titanium Backup in a while. In addition I use CyanDelta to flash nightlies so I don't really have to worry about reinstalling apps.
Miui updates weekly... so usually every week so long as the build proves to be bug free.
On my sgs2 I flashed different ROMs every month, but on the gnex all I've been using is miui (stock android is boring to me, plus I like all the new features).

Anymore I only use stock and rasbean. I used rasbean till 4.2 came out, used stock unrooted 4.2 til about a week ago and am now back on rasbean for the minor added features.
I agree with the poster that stated stock gets just as good battery and just as smooth as custom though. I simply flash for fun and the additional features.

I find stock kernel the fastest and most reliable. Sure, I could get better battery life with custom kernel, but since I mostly charge my phone overnight, 10 hours of battery doesn't make much of a difference. And stock just works. You don't have to worry about SODs or reboots or anything. Perfect for me.

For most of my time with the GNex I have been on stock but with a custom kernel, though the stock kernel does work really well I got used to the extra things like headphone volume boost, colours/contrast, fast USB charge, etc. If anything I favour those features over battery life, though to be honest I have never experienced bad battery life no matter what ROM or kernel I've tried.

I run the CM 10.1 nightlies, and only clear my cache and my Dalvik cache before each flash. My apps are not affected by the frequent updates. It's only when a version change occurs that I have to fully wipe and reinstall everything.
I was a major flashaholic until I found xblack, since then I haven't flashed anything else, so been like a month. I'm trying to live a life that doesnt consist of messing with my hone daily. I found something super stable that works great, so I've stuck with it. Only thing I've flashed since is the latest zen kernel

1) Our phone's always been on 3.0 kernel, which was announced End Of Life this October.
2) Not necessarily new Android versions need new kernel versions. Even 2.6 kernel can run Android 4.1, which typically requires 3.0 or 3.4 kernel.

At the basic, the KERNEL is the low level base code on which all instructions are set. Lets say is in charge of dictate how things are done, again, at the very low level.
Thus Kernel is only needed if your phone has functions or features that are only found in that Kernel version. Lets say that kernel 3.4 has rules on how manage bluetooth 4.0 LE, but our Galaxy Nexus doesnt have Bluetooth 4.0.(Isnt ???). Those that kernel is not really required.
Things become more complex as you add more variables like memory managment, I/O managment, and those thing that improve over each update and maybe are needed in order to work with newer OS version.
I cant really tell you features that are needed in KitKat 4.4 against Kernel 3.4 not found in Kernel 3.0, so I'm not the man that can tell you if bringin(or the lack of) 4.4 to our GNex is a middle finger from Google or not.
Yeah I got curious about some stuff so I decided to manually look at what kernal every device is running. My 4 is 3.4 now, nexus 7 first gen is 3.1, my wife's nook with cm10.2 is 3.0, and my buddies gnexes are also 3.0, while the kitkat kernal is actually 3.8

I don't like illusion. Omni+Xposed+Glitch kernel (better battery and kernel options) is all I really need for my N7.
Omni's new OTA update system is godlike. It takes like literally two seconds to download the updates instead of downloading the whole ROM of 100mb+ to update. Its fast, easy, and efficient. Omni is the future.

OK after flashing both zips I can tell you that in my case Dalvik optimizations seems to have very little or non noticeable effect, no performance degradation that I noticed, on the other hand, flashing Bionic made my touchscreen and launcher laggy as hell, homescreen transitions and app drawer took more than one swipe to move between pages, so I restored my backup and flashed Dalvik again and everything is good now. Just make a nandroid before you flash, just to be safe. BTW, I'm using Harmony 4.4.1

You want to make sure you are using the proper kernel. The most recent ones are for 4.4.2 but you're running 4.3 JB. Other than that, make sure your ROM is AOSP based and it should work. This is not withstanding some CM 11 builds.

Thanks for the answer. I also tried Franco kernel and I was able to get the lock screen but all the colors seemed to be negative. Perhaps is a GPU issue.

Are both of these kernels compactor with CM11.
I used to use Franco kernel exclusively on my N4, but the CM team changed something (related to colour?) that made it incompatible.
Also, do they both support usb-otg so I can mount my USB stick?
