Is Drupal faster than Wordpress for loading pages?

Answer 1

The loading speed of a webpage depends on many factors, apart from the CMS itself.

Even if drupal is considered faster, what if - for example - it's being served from a server on the other side of the planet, with an older PHP version, with a bunch of addons on it, no caching whatsoever and some really large images?!

A good start would be to dive into the criteria by which google determines page speed:
