Benchmarks or no, in all my experience with Linux across many different machines of varying performance, Qt is ALWAYS snappier than GTK+. KDE may take longer to load, but once it has, it's not slow to use. Even on my ATI x300, there is still some slowness and non-snappiness with GTK+ based applications. But Qt applications are very responsive and redraw much faster than GTK+ ones (although I do use 2d compositing built-in to KDE, so redraw is no longer an issue, really).
