I have had great success with MM escs, probably had 10-12 of them and they have held up to almost everything that I could throw at them (save for a 7xl on 5s...)
Servo's just fine. and i have the MM bec disabled to reduce heat and get the servo to move faster.

My gearing is 15/90 and temps haven't been very high. my first MM ESC hit 250 a couple times and the motor hit 230 a few times as well and nothing ever happened. it ran at those temps for a couple months before i got the FLM tranny case and got the temps down a lot. after that it ran for about another year before the ESC went out. got a new ESC and it ran for about half a year before the motor failed out of noware and in return the ESC went with it. i got the motor and ESC replaced at the end of last summer and it's run well since them, even with 2 trackpowers and a 9xl in my maxx. the water damage to the stock reciever mad me replace it with a futaba receiver and it ran fine with that setup for a wile and then just now went out again
