Yes, they are all better. Even with all the faults of CDG, you don't have to wait more than a minute or two to pass from non-Schengen to Schengen. And FRA has business class queues that work. ZRH doesn't really have any Schengen issues yet since they just started Schengen. BRU I haven't tried in years, but it can't be worse than AMS simply due to volume.

Every single time I pass this point at Schiphol, or even when I am just visiting the Schengen Crowne Club, I see massive slow moving queues. I believe KLM installed this new lane since so many elite and business class passengers were missing their connections. I barely made mine today. I was the last to board and they were just about to close the gate.
