Looking at buying a rope for the spiderjack and was wondering which one preforms the best?

I've used Imori rope in mine with good success. The SpiderJack can handle 11 ~ 13mm rope without changing cams which is an improvement over the LockJack which is more sensitive to different size rope. You need to change cams if you change rope size with the LockJack.
 
Poison ivy, or poison hivee if you dont like the darker color. About as good as it gets on that device. I've only had a few climbs on it, but other guys I know running them say the poison ivy is by a fair ways the best rope.

As an aside, it's a pretty versatile rope for most uses - 8mm beeline works fine, and it goes good with all the SRT devices I've tried with it too. Not that great for the footlock crowd though.
