Default Overlap and cylinder pressure discussion

I'd like to see a discussion on how lack of overlap affects cylinder pressure and detonation in a higher compression/larger cube motor. (Say 11.5-12:1) running pump gas or race gas.

Compare these two sample cams: (XE-R grinds for simplicity)

230/230 115LSA 110ICL (XER)

246/250 111LSA 109ICL (XER)

Similar valve events (IVO, etc) but completely different overlap wise.

How do you think both cams would behave on pump gas with tuning?
