And more broadly, does that hold any time you switch compounds? I put my stock pads back on last night, and noticed the brakes felt very weak for the first few miles. They felt almost like there was grease on the rotors. By the end of todays commute they were back to feeling like "normal" brakes.
I went from 30k miles on stock pads and rotors to xp10s with no issue.
