Getting close on tire selection, but now wanted to ask about tubes.

Have read that latex tubes have better puncture protection and create lower rolling resistance, but need to be topped off with air before each ride (which I do now anyway)

I guess my only question is whether the lifespan of latex is significantly shorter than butyl rubber. What have your experiences been on this and the use of latex tubes in general?
