From what can be shown here, the DoT opener is 10DPS stronger while Krietor's opener is spikier. The former would be better in longer fights, while the latter may be better for SCoB-style fights.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, this is with my raid setup I've posted earlier.
In 13 seconds, you did an extra 11 auto attacks. Since BRD doesn't have a weapon with a 1.18 delay (which would be required to hit 11 extra times in 13 seconds), you must have used Barrage. Your current Lodestone profile shows an Artemis Bow Nexus with 3.28 delay. The math says that in those 13 seconds, you got 3 shots boosted by Barrage (9 attacks) and 2 shots not boosted (2 attacks), totaling 11 extra auto-attacks. And since Hawk's Eye and Barrage are usually used in conjunction, it would surprise me not at all to find out that you also used that right at the end.

So, no, your opening most likely doesn't do better DPS. Sorry.
