For (English only) speech-to-text, NVIDIA's Parakeet-V2 is significantly faster than Whisper and I found it to be more accurate.

Compared to all Whister models? Or the faster ones? And which version of Whisper? All for a faster, more accurate model, but need a bit more.

All of them, in my experience.

Fair, looking at the ASR leaderboards it is truly better - https://huggingface.co/spaces/hf-audio/open_asr_leaderboard and NVIDIA's Canary might be even better? Will try these out. Appreciate bringing these to my attention!
