How?
The Rust compiler frontend already can use GCC as a backend.
This project - GCC rs - is a different frontend, which also happens to use GCC as a backend.
The number of targets and performance that both can have is the same.
So the argument "GCC can be faster than GCC" is illogical. You are talking about the same thing.
