This reminds me of the big bolt verses lever gun debate in US sporting magazines nearly 100 years ago. All sorts of timed fire comparisons were done to see which action type was faster. These speed tests had little in common with the day to day reality of using a rifle.
I firmly believe that it comes down to the individual. I love my double rifle but but if put in a dangerous situation I would take my bolt gun every time. That says more about me than it does about the merits of the two rifle types.
