Tri-X (TXT) in Dektol and in XTol

What are the strengths and weaknesses of these two developers when used with KODAK TRI-X Pan Professional Film (TXT)? How are they different in terms of retaining detail in shadows and highlights? How are they different in terms of grain, edge effects, sharpness, etc? Yes, I know I can perform extensive testing and determine my own answers but it would be helpful to know what experienced darkroom folks can coax out of these materials. I'll be contact printing the negatives.
