That depends on your choice of opto, drive and load resistors more than 
anything else, these are your limiting factors. Assuming the opto is 
fast enough and sensitive enough (Tplh/Tphl and CTR) then you should 
drive the optos as hard as you can as you will need as low a value 
collector load resistor as possible to achieve a fast low to high on the 
opto collector ...... and so on.

??? That's ok, if you want speed, don't use unbuffered optos, go for 
something with a logic buffers built-in, these are designed for speed.
