Default The best roller rockers?

Which ones are the best?
I thought that the Comp Cams Pro-Magnums were but now I saw the Comp Cams High-Tech ones that are more expensive and billed as better?
They also come in bigger ratios.

What is the best set. (Not restricted to the examples)

T&D or Jesel... Hey... You asked... For conventional stud mounted rockers it's hard to go wrong with either Comp's Pro Magnums or Crane's Gold Race...

CompCams has been running an ad showing a broken Crane Gold Rocker.

I don't remember the ad saying what were the conditions causing the failure, but I suspect it was heavy spring pressure coupled with lots of R's.

I use to run Crane's Gold rockers with 240# on the seat and close to 700# open shifting at 82 and never had a failure though.
