3. You'll probably run the 1.0's at higher air pressure if, for no other reason to minimize pinch flats. The higher air pressure will probably neutralize the rolling resistance penalty.
4. If you ride on crushed limestone rail-trail conversions, the 1.4's will feel much more secure.

In real life the differences mentioned above will fade into the background when compared with the effort required to push your torso through the air. The higher air pressure will probably "feel" a little faster because it bounces around more but actual measureable speed will probably be about the same. Higher air pressure will make your bike feel subjectively bumpier.

My advice is to buy whichever size you think looks cooler.
