I think the performance on both are close on my box. I hit the "defaults" button in Video Settings and disabled vertical sync.

Averages (Ubuntu 8.04 / Windows XP)
Orgimmar at bank: ~20fps / ~23fps
Azeroth: ~55 fps / ~55 fps
Shattrath: ~25fps / ~25fps
Outlands: ~40ps / ~45fps

Neither seem to handle large populated areas. I do need to upgrade my motherboard and CPU since they're pretty dated.

My specs:
AMD Athlon64 X2 4200+ (Dual Core) - 2.21GHz
3GB of RAM
Nvidia 8800GT 512MB
