I don't have any hard performance numbers for you but consider that using the bind option with 200 virtual hosts will require (with default settings) 1000 httpds running at all times. Using the VirtualHost option, you'll only have as many as you really need running at any one time. Now that may turn out to be just as many but at least they are guaranteed to be doing real work, not just eating memory.
