My question is: Why is OpenBSD faster than a Gentoo system built
from source and why is it faster than FreeBSD?


Faster at doing what?


Faster at everything (on the side of a desktop system)

Look at this benchmark, it is old but says exactly the opposite of what
you are saying:
http://bulk.fefe.de/scalability/
By the way, experience of most people is that OpenBSD may have
qualities, byt speed is certainly not one of those. And in the years
between the benchmark and now, FreeBSD and Linux have significantly
improved their performance ...
It may be that you experience is correlated to particular hardware you
have which causes problems with FreeBSD.
