Well, you said not to reply unless you're certain, and I don't think
anyone (excepting Herr Biskup himself, of course) knows the exact
effects of all the slaying weapons/missiles...
But from what I can remember on older discussions on the matter, in this
newsgroup, the effects vary from one slaying thing to other, giving a
different damage multiplier. Some have also said that bypassing PV
occurs for blessed slayers, but that probably stems from blessed things
doing extra damage to demons and undead, and isn't actually true.
Here's an interesting thread about the damage multipliers:

And another one about bypassing PV (scroll down a few posts):
