This recent OSDI paper [1] has a direct comparison in Fig 8. It appears there is no particularly pronounced distribution or general performance advantage, and TensorFlow actually outperforms MXNet in this comparison.

The version tested in paper should not have P2P,so it was much slower than current version.
