I would agree that the "stags" are one of the quicker ones, notably the green slimer tends to grow quickly for most (a. yongei) . I have found most a. millepora, prostrata, and hyacynthus (red planet) grow quite quickly, at least for me. I think the a big factor is getting healthy, aquacultured frags.

I've had the fastest growth with a Yellow/Green Millie, here are some pics over a 9 month span
Put in tank on 9/28/12
Pic 1 taken 9/28/12
Pic 2 taken 12/7/12
Pic 3 taken 1/3/13
Pic 4 taken 6/12/13
Pic 5 FTS from 7/2/13
That green slimer in the middle of the last pic grew quick also, it started as a 2" frag (single stick, no branching) in October 2012

I don't know what type of acro this is but it was the fastest growing out of all of mine.

The dead branch was caused by a millepora falling into it while I was at work. It was sold to me as an acropora sqarrosa. I'm not really sure which acro it is though

Green slimer and ORA Scripps are hands down my fastest growers.

I am hoping to see good growth from my blue slimer. Well, I think its blue slimer, if you touch it you will have slime dripping from your fingers when you pull your hand from the water. I haven't had it identified but it looks like a.youngei to me. It could be something else as far as I know. What do you think?
I thought the OP asked for FATEST coral in the title.

Tri-color Valida for me. I also have had rapid growth with a Palmer's blue milli.
ORA Tri-color - 2 years growth
ORA Tri-color - 2 years growth
July 2011
July 2013
November 2013 - had to remove it despite constant fragging, too big!
Amazing growth and very nice looking coral.
