What I am saying is that many many factors make up "performance" and not all of them can be measured in a day or a week by a normal driver at normal speeds on normal roads in a country with a moderate climate. Example: Can you test your brakes in extreme conditions like -40°C or +50°C, or at extreme speeds like 240 kmph. Volvo make their brakes to perform in such conditions. I personally have experienced -20°C and around 180kmph, so such extremes are closer than you think. But they are not everyday. But they are an important part of brake material selection and testing.
