Schwalbe G-One All Around

I've been riding on G-One All Arounds for a couple of years in their 38c version. They've seen a lot of use and are wearing down a bit. As I think about replacing them, I have the distinct impression from what I've been reading that the the G-One AAs have been getting bad reviews for poor rolling resistance. Sometimes it is rather difficult to tell which version of the tyre is being tested. It seems to be the new ones with a different casing and compound that are faring poorly. But does anyone have a clear picture of whether they're still good tyres? Most of the discussions I've seen concerning the new 38c tyres. Does anyone know if the 35c tyres have the same problems?

I'd be very happy to stick with the G-Ones if they aren't giving up 10 watts to a similar tyre like the Terra Speed. I was thinking of going down to 35mm, as I like the feeling of narrower tyres on tarmac. That seems to be more or less the true measure of the G-One 35c tyres, but the Terra Speed 35c tyres seem to measure in at more like 32mm, which is a bit small.

Any insights or opinions greatly appreciated!
