as long as i know, 

short response: both are not full GPL
long response: historically hymalia was only GPL but it seems some parts are now CC-ed (creative commons) in the frontend.
hyperion is dual GPL/CC from the beginning

since hyperion is for the hosting market it's supposed to be "lightweight", and it's. but the architecture is not as modular (at least in the current version) as
the "old" hymalia (fewer components & more integration, no more standalone tomcat, no more ldap, ....) and as such it will probably be more complex
to scale it well to very big deploiement (perhaps more than 1000 users), but the backend performs well for 100+ users and the frontend is just a matter of bandwith.

i will be interested if someone has more informations on how well these scale in real world (and big) deploiement.
