Well luckily I recently published a new comparison benchmark[0]. :)

The TL;DR is that loc is faster by a few hundred milliseconds depending on repository size, but as cgag mentions doesn't have comment in string detection so can be quite off in its metrics, for example on the Rust repo Tokei says it has 643,754 lines of code where as loc says it's 635,849.
