Microframework is often used as a marketing buzzword. For example web2py core consists of only the files web2py.py and gluon/*.py. All together they have less size then some "micro frameworks".
Speedwise the bottle neck for everybody is DB IO. If you use a database than all frameworks perform more or less the same. If you do not use the database and you do not use a template language, and you only serve cached content, than web2py is slower because it does things by default that cannot be disabled (parsing of input, session handing, many security checks). This total time is negligible for real life apps. In my experience, this becomes important only when you want to served cached pages without authentication or do async IO. For Async IO I like Tornado and Gevent. The only true micro frameworks for me are Bottle and web.py because they are small. That is why they are also very fast. The less they do the faster they are. I personally like Bottle because it is very well designed and consists of one single file. In my experience the fastest of all are Tornado and Bottle.
