The only difference I could envision would be if you were using a Standard virtual server with a configuration that would make it load balance individual HTTP requests (iRule, oneconnect) vs. just load balancing the L4 TCP connection.
If you use a virtual with type FastL4 (Performance Layer 4), then I wouldn't expect a difference.
