It's not nearly as fast as Forge. Node based logic will always have a place but the choice is more a matter of heuristics than need at the end of the day. At the end of the day you're just changing inputs as tokens on a per-step basis.
Comfy gives you control over these inputs with greater granularity but if you are able to make those step changes by other means (and you easily can in A1 forks) you can obtain virtually the same results using different approaches and it's always much faster and less complex. Comfy is popular because it's a familiar logic node format that anyone coming from any other node based programming system will appreciate. A1's forks are faster, better supported and more accessible but changing inputs per step is a bit esoteric because it can be done with step changes or literal prompt weighting.
In other words, Comfy is for hylics.
