To get the best battery life from S 2 using ICS, flash your phone with HydraH20 rom (v1.1.2), and then flash the latest Siyah kernel (v3.2.3).
Reboot to recovery and goto Kernel features and set profile to battery saving.
Reboot phone and set the min CPU value to 25MHz and the governor to OnDemand.
Then install ExTweaks and adjust the GPU frequency to 66,200,400 (vcore to 800,950,1100 respectively).

Will this affect any performance?

^^^ have tried Paranoid android. Did not find that rom to be very stable. Did face a few FC's.

No it will not affect performance.
If you want to further fine tune, then you can raise or lower the load threshold for the cpu or gpu.

Hydra is the most stable ROM so far? How about NEATRom and HydrogenICS. I've tried the latter but had some issues so want to try something better.

Havent tried NEATRom. Tried HydrogenICS, it used to be my daily driver untill recent updates caused a few FC's.
Since then have shifted to HydraH2O and Siyah 3.2.3.
Choose between Hydra and CM9 (I prefer Hydra cuz it comes with few xtra things)

How much battery life are you getting with this? How is the performance?

Performance is awesome. When in sleep the proccy is down at 25MHz and when reqd by apps, its gets out of that state. No lags.
On the GPU front, all depends on what load thereshold you have set to change the GPU states.

With average use (read 3-4hrs of music, 30-45 mins of surfing, and 3G sync (push) activated on 4 accounts) i get around 2 days.
With heavy use like 5-6 hrs of gaming + the above mentioned things, it lasts more than a day.

Pics or it din't happen! I doubt it's possible to get that kind of battery life on stock battery!
