film developers and base fog

David Lyga said:

I think that it would be both interesting and informative to delineate those film developers which either (largely) negate base fog and those which seem to 'encourage' it (albeit, while enhancing film speed).

In using many film developers over the years I can start this thread by stating that Rodinal, HC-110, and Polydol seem to offer low base density, while XTOL gives a stop more speed, but at the cost of greater base density.

Agree? Other developers? - David Lyga
