As the name suggests, an XML-based layout is a specification of widgets' relationships to each other—and to containers—encoded in XML format. Specifically, Android considers XML-based layouts to be resources, and as such, layout files are stored in the res/layout directory inside your Android project.

The XML layout gets converted to Java code when compiled, so performance should be the same. I prefer using XML since a lot of documentation and tutorials make use of it; it's the Android way of writing out UI. Also, XML tends to be easier to reuse.
