e9x floating vs f8x fixed caliper impressions?

I know its subjective but i'm looking for anyone who's used both braking systems to their limits. While you can chime in if you've got the CCB i'm more concerned with your subjective opinions when its come to stopping power and fading. After reading the tech sheet for the F80 it says the brakes are fixed caliper and 4 piston front 2 piston rears vs the floating single piston options.

Thoughts?
