If you want speed, then I suggest you look at a source based distro like Gentoo or sourcemage.
The advantages to these distros is that everything is compiled for your computer by your computer.
However the major disadvantage is that it takes ages for the system and any software to be installed.

Another thing about source based distros is that they don't try to hide anything from you. This means that you are in control and have to do everything.

If you're not afraid of the disadvantages then I suggest that you take a look at a source based distro.
