Can you explain your question better? I don't understand it enough to take a shot at an answer

  The only feature I care about is persistence. Is there a difference between Screen and tmux regarding persistence?

    No.

    If you only need persistence, look into dtach. That's all it does. Both screen and tmux offer multiple persistent sessions, the difference is the command syntax. Back when I was deciding on a terminal multiplexer I picked tmux over screen because session sharing seemed to be done in a more sane way. But then again, had I used screen for any length of time I'm sure I'd have gotten used to it.

      Looking briefly at dtach, screen's handling of named sessions seems to be marginally better, so I'll stick with it.
