I remember reading that friction knots work best with different diameter ropes. I'm too lazy to go get my rope and test it right now though, so pinch of salt and all that.
I usually prefer klemheists over prussics. They're unidirectional, meaning that it only grabs the rope of loaded in 1 direction (prussics are bi). I use'em a bunch when teaching people how to belay/lower on toprope.
