quick release

I'm not sure if this has been asking before, sorry if it has.

I got my front bolt on hub upgraded to fit a new fork. It is now quick release, but I've seen tons of cyclists with bolt on rather than a quick release. Is quick release any better? Ups/downs? I haven't noticed much of a difference so far but I've heard that people are concerned about quick release on a track bike.

EDIT: For those of you who are interested, I posted a week ago about a carbon fork on my hi-ten frame. I bought the fork because it's super cheap (50 bucks, new forte axis fork). I got it installed which is why I had to switch to quick release, my bolt on hub wouldn't fit. I really love the fork, it made my bike slightly lighter and I've also noticed a HUGE reduction in vibration.
