Syflex is good for digital doubles. It's fast, accurate and stable.

It's not that good for full blown CG characters. They usually have multiple layers of cloth, but Syflex does not solve cloth to cloth collisions.

To claim that H Cloth is faster than Syflex is ridiculous.

Syflex for Houdini is actually the very first version of the cloth system. It lacks many useful features from the latest releases - like the magnet constraint, that gives nice directability during simulation time.

H Cloth solves cloth to cloth, so if you have to deal with layers of cloth go for it.

It is slow and lacks flexible constraints.
