If you look at Blend2D (a CPU rasterizer), they seem to outperform every other rasterizer including GPU-based ones - according to their own benchmarks at least

Blaze outperforms Blend2D - by the same author as the article: https://gasiulis.name/parallel-rasterization-on-cpu/ - but to be fair, Blend2D is really fast.

Blend2D doesn't benchmark against GPU renderers - the benchmarking page compares CPU renderers. I have seen comparisons in the past, but it's pretty difficult to do a good CPU vs GPU benchmarking.
