7 Pocket Types and How They Work

I use the Dynamic Mill toolpath in Mastercam the most.
So I guess my answer to your question would be Adaptive?
 
Using Siemens NX...

1) Adaptive Roughing for large parts which have no delicate features.
2) Follow Part for small parts and parts with delicate features. Similar to your Advanced, I believe, but has many corner and performance options.
3) Rest Roughing always, also has corner and performance options.

I rarely use any of the other types because IMO they generally are obsoleted by Adaptive and Advanced. Also IMO, Rest Roughing is simply another step and is not a "type".
