Red face Motor/ESC experts please chime in: Motor vs ESC Timing, which is better?

I searched and didn't come up with an answer to my question in the onroad and offroad threads. I've always wondered, if you wanted 20 degrees of timing (or whatever), is it better to do it in the motor itself or do it through the ESC?

What I'm wondering is if one is more efficient than the other, if one way yields more rpm or torque than the other, etc. Or do they provide EXACTLY the same results?

Thanks in advance for your comments.
