The KDE people say the same thing about Gnome that the Gnome people say about KDE (performance, bloat, etc) . I think in the end it seems that there is very little reason to separate the two systems based on performance. They both do what they are meant to do pretty well.
The Gnome project really started because KDE used to include non free software, and Gnome since then has always been seen as the more open source alternative. So given Ubuntu's ethos based in free software it's not really surprising that they (he) chose Gnome. Regards, Daniel.
