Rodinal 1+150, of course :)
Seems that FOMA sold here is worse a lot or something.. Mine has differences
in thickness and sensivity, sometimes is scratched.. And I had a lot of them from
many batches.
A lot better cheap emulsion is Ilford PAN 100 and PAN 400. Second of them is
AFAIK based on HP4 - costs some 1.7 $ here (HP5 costs twice as much) and works
very well both in Rodinal and HC-110.
As fro grain - please note thas this white house on enlargement is 3mm wide and 2mm
high on a 11x14 enlargement I scanned it from. So Foma 100 resolution is very good, indeed :)
