On the Smalltalk grammar, SmaCC is two times faster than PetitParser and
Compiled PetitParser is four times faster. RBParser is like four point one
times faster.
The SmaCC parsers are table driven, unless you rewrite SmaCC to produce
top-down parsers, it will not reach the performance of RBParser or the
parser compiled by PetitParser Compiler.

Dory, when you say that 'the static parsers are significantly faster’ can
you give some numbers on that? And you know what the numbers are compared
to the compiled petitparsers of Jan and Jan ? (Their compiler is really
cool BTW :-) I use it for LRP )

problem of PetitParser will likely be significantly improved once we get
the work of Jan on compiling parsers.
