Schottky can be pretty bad for snubbing, depending.  The peak current can 
hit the guard ring diodes and you get big recovery loss.  The capacitance is 
huge.

You'd have to add a shunt to be sure what was going on with the other one.

Regular diodes can have faster recovery than schottky-guard-ring recovery, 
but they also cost forward as well as reverse recovery.
