Has anyone compared DA*50-135 vs DA*60-250?

I really like my 50-135. An amazing zoom lens indeed. But I notice that the auto focus is a little bit slow.

So has anybody made comparison test on these 2 lenses? What I hope to see are:
1. Which one focuses faster? Is it significant?
2. Sample image test of similar object with similar focal length (60-135 at f/4 up)? I am sure many wants to see comparable IQ, bokeh, and sharpness.

Thanks,

I'm quite pleased with the 60-250, but I feel a good prime lens will still outperform it.

Maybe you're right, Mike.
There are not enough or maybe none that has both right now.
I'll just wait for some time and shoot this question again.

Thanks again,
