Cold and rough in big water or calm and cozy on a small lake?

You didn't list the distances, but all things being equal I'd prefer big water and swells over calm.. as long as the rough conditions are not caused by boats spewing gasoline. I did a triathlon once in those conditions and it was my worst OW experience ever.
