Let's talk Growth Equity: Where do Accel-KKR, Goldman Growth, and Google Capital rank amongst top growth PE shops?

Here is a list I found on CB Insights of the top Growth PE firms.

Summit Partners Technology Crossover Ventures Insight Venture Partners Lead Edge Capital Susquehanna Growth Equity JMI Equity General Atlantic FTV Capital OpenView Venture Partners Stripes Group Spectrum Equity Updata Partners

I am wondering where you VC/PE monkeys would rank funds affiliated with big name PE (KKR), Banking (Goldman), and Technology (Google) giants against the traditional players listed above.

Are they in the same league? Lesser? Better? Both in terms of prestige and in terms of performance. Thanks in advanced for responses!
