Compact Flash, without a doubt.

The main advantage to the CF format (aside from ubiquity) is that the
larger size allows for (less expensive) micro-hard drives with ~4G
capacities. 

The main advantage to SD is size.  

I don't think performance is significantly different. Cards of either
format are available in versions that are faster than most cameras.
