I believe lift to duration ratio is a good indicator of lobe aggressiveness and a decent way to guesstimate if you'll have valvetrain noise. Another is comparing advertised (usually @ .006") vs .050" durations. This is kinda why lift and duration, to an extent, do increase together as slowburb pointed out. The duration gives you an idea of how quickly that valve has to open to peak and slam shut again.
