I'm not sure you can call a quaife slow reacting. I guess slow compared to a clutch type which is locked until the breakway torque is reached, but the reviews I have read say that a wheel doesn't even need to spin before torque is redistributed. It has to do with wheel speed differentials, of which the difference need only be very small to mesh the gears. It pretty much reacts before any splip can even happen. In situations outside of rock crawling (they act like open diffs when you lift a wheel), and potentially drift (I haven't done it, so I'll assume the drifters know better what works) mechanical type diffs pretty much kick a$$.
