As one can see from this brief testing -- at least for the OMAP4 PandaBoard spin -- the Linaro-built Ubuntu image really isn't any faster than the latest official Ubuntu release or the current development images. Ubuntu pulls in most (or all) of the optimization work done on the Linaro tool-chain and other areas to benefit Ubuntu for ARM.
