Rick gives a nice listing above. A few findings of my own:
Early Girl isn't very flavorful nor does it produce over a long period of time for me.
I grew Stupice this year. Not a heavy fruit bearer, and all the fruit was split. To be fair, this was a challenging year for tomatoes and we have had record rainfall (over 57" to date).
I grew Matina for several years. It was early and flavorful and bore a lot of fruit over a long period. Fruit was unblemished with no "green shoulders", as shown on the vine in this photo
