I don't think you can compare the two operating systems as they are quite different in the way they operate and what they offer. The use of either (including android and RTOS'es) is situational.
Win10 IoT is an appliance OS tightly integrated with Visual Studio made for running specialized code and snippets. Linux works fine as a stand-alone OS, but can be customised to do just about anything.
Comparing Win10 IoT to Linux like comparing a toaster to a person. The toaster is great at making toast. The person is great at operating the toaster and consuming toast, but can also be taught to do a myriad of other things.
(To clarify; IoT is the toaster. Linux is the person.)
