is anyone aware of or has done a calculations speed comparison for the
four float types (single, double, extended, comp)?

For the x87, the only difference can come from cache misses/hits due to the different sizes they take up in memory, because the x87 performs all calculations using either extended (the default in FPC) or double precision (user-settable).
