wait() is faster; proven using some simple ticks. Seems to be a tad different of around .01 seconds:
bob = tick()
wait(1/math.huge)
now = tick()
print(now - bob,"---")
steve = tick()
wait()
john = tick()
print(john - steve)
Output: 0.046874284744263 --- 0.032794237136841
The fastest available loop in ROBLOX is RunService:
local rs=game:GetService("RunService")
rs.RenderStepped:connect(function()
-- Put code to run every frame
end

1/math.huge is just 0 (check yourself). Don't do silly things like that -- you very rarely want to deal with infinities.
It's the same as wait(0), so no. The fastest waits would be RunService.Stepped and RunService.RenderStepped( client scripts only ), for they fire 30 and 60 times a second, respectively.
