Gearing will also be marginally higher for 27” for a given setup. Just brainstorming differences;!that has nothing to do with the speed of the wheels themselves.
You can still find plenty of decent 27” tires but afaik you can’t find what most would consider truly fast tires. So if speed is a big concern you probably will go with 700c regardless of which wheel size is faster on paper.
