IMO, it's even if someone does it, the results would be very
questionable since there are a lot of things that can influence the
speed. It is the same as trying to answer the question: which OS is
faster? The Firebird is build from the same base code on Linux and
Windows so I don't see why it would be faster on any.

It depends on the environment. Superserver scales better for OLTP and a
lot of users having short transactions. Classic is better for OLAP and
long running queries. I can thing of two setups where either Classic or
Superserver is faster.
