I wanted to know how well the Prussian landwehr performed as a whole, and how they compared with the Westphalian landwehr. Were they and their officers always a poor cousin of the regulars, or did they occasionally prove themselves?

I was under the impression that the Westphalian Landwehr was Prussian Landwehr, like Silesian or East Prussian Landwehr.
They were up to the task, they formed a large part of the Prussian Army - line infantry, reserve infantry and Landwehr fought side by side.
