They're better, a lots less flex since it's forged, not machined, not as simple to adjust with v-brake pads, but once set up, can be ridiculously powerful.
Straddle cable from a gear cable instead of brakes make a big difference in performance too, I just need to ride it in the rain to stop it squealing (a common issues with new Mafac style pads that required a short breaking in period).
