LXL lobe list

Anyone have one? I am just wondering how they compare to other lobes out there.

I have a lsl/lxl lobe cam... The lxl lobes are a slow ramp soft closing lobe which is good for exhaust

I have heard that before but what makes a soft slow ramp lobe better for the exhaust? I would have thought it would be the exact opposite. A slow soft lobe to more easily control the bigger heavier intake lobe and a fast aggressive lobe for the smaller lighter exhaust lobe.

My understanding is that the opening ramp rate is like the LSL lobes, and the closing ramp rate is like the XE(xtreme rpm) lobes.
