I personally like ck-sources better. I tried love, but things like bootsplash could be broken from release to release, and I really don't need to be that bleeding edge. Its all a matter of taste though. Try them out and see which one you like better

I didn't notice too much of a performance difference between the two kernels in my daily use.

The only real way to answer that is to try them yourself.

Not meant to be rude, but I have found many different kernels to be good at different things in different configurations.

Only way to know is to try

Stability: depends, but --
ck- is patched off of the mainline stable kernel
love- is patched off of the most recent mm- development kernel

Speed/Responsiveness: harder to tell, users will argue for either one --
if you need definitive numbers, take a look at testing with Contest by Con Kolivas ...
