Coinex.pw EASILY wins this battle. Coinex.pw has the fastest transactions in and out of all exchanges i used so far. It's almost instant when you transact funds out and deposits are as fast as the blockchain allows them to be.
There have been some incidences where coinex.pw had to freeze transactions because of database corruptions they had to fix first.
The problem with coinex.pw is that they do not offer all coins cryptsy has, lack the volume currently (but it's getting better), but most important, their exchange code is less than perfect, requiring me to refresh the browser all the time. They need to fix this (maybe they have as i did not use it for some time now because i did not trade any alts lately).
All in all, coinex.pw i trust way more than cryptsy which obviously does it's own arbitrage on high volume coins, possibly conspiring with another exchange. It's no coincidence certain coins allow you to draw out funds quickly while coins allowing for arbitrage at peak times like doge, tips, IXC , moon etc required several days at times to withdraw them.
It got to the point where i had to send a few test coins in and out to see if they enabled their artificial withdraw/deposit freezing on certain coins.
I got trapped still with some doge when 3-4 transactions worked just fine on the same volume, followed by a transaction which took almost a day to get out.
It would be quite easy for coinex.pw to destroy cryptsy, simply by adding autosell and all alts (possibly even more than cryptsy). This would take away all users which just mine alts and want to autosell them for btc/ltc/doge or other more future proof coins.
As i see it, the only reason why people use cryptsy is simply becase there is no alternative, as in an exchange having almost all alts and allowing to autosell.

that's a great review, but given recent events it might be best to find out if they are still functioning before giving them such a great review.
No work = No good.
No work + No tell = Bad
(No work + No tell)*Days = Irresponsible
i have not followed recent events. Just commented on the coinex.pw vs cryptsy topic from my experience. Maybe i have some reading to do.
edit: Hm, reading up on this, it really seems like i was too fast to give them credit. Let's hope they resolve everything and no one loses any coins...
