Best quantifiable speed feats?
Disregarding simple point A to point B flying in a straight line feats, what are the best quantifiable (or 'nigh-quantifiable') speed feats you've ever seen?

DCnU Superman reading every medical book ever written in seconds. He had to turn all the pages with his hands manually. He had to find each one. And process the information.

It seems he was reading texts on the computer as well.

It's a helluva feat, possibly the best pure quantifiable feat in the modern comics.
I can think of better old school feats though. Golden Age Superman making his own underground cities across the entire planet, in seconds too, IIRC.
Probably the best pure speed feat I can think of is Golden Age Captain Marvel rebuilding an entire planet by himself in a panel. The planet had exploded and he was noted to put it back together before the atmosphere got too far away to reform...or something.

It's quantifiable at 100 x speed of light.
Which means quantifiably its very unimpressive for his 'weight class'.
