The point of slotting is to give any air that could be trapped between the pads & the disc somewhere to escape to.
This was the original theory behind cross drilling, but this creates a weak path across the disc.

The edge of the slot also helps to scrape any foreign material off the pad.

I haven't been able to tell as I've never gone from a non-slotted to a slotted of the same size. I've upgrading the calipers & disc size at the same time, so not a level field to compare on.
