.dll is the In process component where it take up the client's memory space to run. So the communication between the application and component(dll) is very fast.
.EXE is the Out of process component. It uses its own memory(not application memory) to run the component. The communication between the application and component is slow when compared to .dll

DLL : It is an inprocess server and runs in the same memory space as client application. Problem with dll is if any error comes in dll whole application gets crashed.
Exe : It is an out of process server and rus as independent application in seperate memory. If error comes in exe it does not affact the client application.
