Most racing yachts are sloops for good reason, this is generally the fastest rig, particularly into wind. Ketches are generally the slowest with cutters in between.
The specific question of a very light wind on a broad reach, is however, a more difficult question. It would depend on mast size, displacement etc, but the Ketch might be the quickest if it had all the possible sails up and the racing crew to handle them. .
