Unless you're building something where the small difference in speed is absolutely critical, I would seek to answer a different question: Which structure will be easier to understand and maintain in the future when I (or others) come back to it?
Wise words. While I often adhere to the motto "A clock cycle saved today is a clock cycle that can be put toward more powerful features tomorrow", we need to balance that with time-to-market and robustness.
In many cases it should be possible to make whatever evaluation needs to be done with either "case" or "if" outside of repeat loops, so you can use whichever form best represents the logic involved while optimizing performance even more than using either within the loop.
