It's spelled "percolator", and it was the standard, everyday, "everyone-had-one" coffee maker until the drip coffee machine ("Mr. Coffee") came in about 1970. The drip machines blew the percolator into history's dust bin. However, the big coffee "urns" you still see at church breakfasts, large buffet luncheons, etc, are percolators.

How do perculators compare with regular drip coffee machines in terms of speed?

In terms of speed, perculators are the older and traditional method, which brews the coffee for an extended period of time. Many believe that using the perculator will create a richer and stronger coffee, as it brews for a longer period of time, but it is probably not the best option for you if you just need to make a quick cup before heading off to work in the morning. So if you are looking for your quick cup of coffee you are probably best sticking with a standard drip coffee machine rather than a perculator. If you do have more time and would like to make a richer cup of coffee, it may be a good way to try for a special event, family gathering, or holiday.
