Subject: [Leica] OT which b&w 120 film for XXL prints?

I have used 135 Ilford PanF 50, FP4 125 and HP5 400 for decades 
and was always satisfied with it. But now I'm looking for a 
b&w 120 film for big enlargements of 645 negs, up to 1m x 1.33m. 

Is Delta 100, or Fuji Acros 100, superior to FP4 in terms of fine grain? 
And how does they compare in contrast, tonality?

Has anyone experiences with that new Rollei PAN-25, or even 
compared it to PanF 50? Or any othe suggestion? 

Usage will be for landscape, daylight, tripod if needed.

Every advice will be strongly appreciated. 
Many thanks in advance,
Didier
