Packs Off And/Or APU On For Takeoff

Hi,

-Is it common to use packs off and/or APU for takeoff and initial climb?

-It will be nice if someone can give a number for the paylaod gain when using packs off and/or APU for takeoff

-Wondering which thrust reverser (petals or cascades) provides less stopping distance?

-During normal or high speed RTO, if one engine fails or dispatched inoperative can the crew use the thrust reverser of other operating engine(s)?


Feedback appreciated
Regards
