Avoid.

Use if you want a more featureful, but slower and incomplete,  
implementation of SPARQL. Or if you want to do SPARQL against the  
"told" ontology. Or if you need to query for annotation property values.

Depends on the OWLAPI or Jean for loading. Internal API gives most  
precise functionality for controlling reasoning and certain types of  
queries. Native SPARQL is faster for queries that it understands and  
IIRC, falls back to using Jena (in all situations?)

Loads faster than Jena. Big ontologies win here. I haven't used any  
query facilities from OWLAPI, so I can't speak to that aspect.

ymmv.
