 I suppose you might gain an advantage having multiple distributions for a
 single bucket if you serve pages with many components to web browsers that
 limit the number of simultaneous connections per site. I believe that many
 browsers do this, some with as few as 4 connections per site. If you serve
 a
 page with many images for example, the connection restrictions may prevent
 the browser from using all the available bandwidth to load the page.

 People sometimes use multiple CNAMEs to work around per-site restrictions,
 and you can use this approach with CloudFront's CNAME support as well, but
 by setting up multiple distributions you could achieve the same thing
 without having to set up the CNAMEs or worry about DNS stuff at all.
