This will vary depending on the type of cooktop you have, and whether you have a 240V kettle.

Electric coil cooktops, and 120V kettles are the slowest.

Gas/induction cooktops, and 240V kettles are the quickest.

Yeah huge difference if you have 240V mains. A 120V electric kettle is not much of a timesaver (though perhaps still worth something if it frees up a place on the cooktop that you need for something else).
