Will Servo faster than Blink?

This is the last stand of Mozilla.
If not, I can't imagine how Mozilla embarrass.

Comparing apples and oranges, there. I think you mean to say "will quantum be faster than blink?"

Servo will severely lack bugs once it is finished due to being written in a type safe, pointer safe, and memory safe language with no garbage collector mandatory. So at the very least it 'coud' be more secure than blink, goanna, webkit, and any other web platform out there really.

Speed would be determined by how they interface with almost everything else. Looks like they use curl, freeglut, freetype, mesa, gperf, pip, openssl, libXmu, glu, and xorg-server. So the rendering, part of the networking, and I/O will be of a similar or degraded performance. The other part of the networking and disk I/O would be bug free along with everything needed to translate from rust to C++ bindings to <insert library here> having 'fewer' bugs which means more speed sometimes.

Really you will just have to try it when it is finished.

It has the potential of avoiding some common pitfalls, but I don't think you can say it will lack bugs. No matter what language you write a considerably-sized program in, it can and will have bugs.

So at the very least it 'coud' be more secure than blink, goanna, webkit, and any other web platform out there really.

Once again, Servo can't be compared with Blink or Goanna. If you want to compare, then you should compare Servo with XUL as a UI front-end.
The speed and security of Firefox will depend on Spidermonkey and Quantum (which is built on Gecko) since that is the platform, not what is being used to construct the front-end.
