How fast was the fastest mecaum?

Out of curiosity, has anybody actually geared their mecanum drives for anything above 15-16fps? Generally I see speeds of 10-12fps with mecanums.
I'm asking because I always see the claim that mecanums can't go fast, but I've actually never heard of anybody who has tried. There's nothing that limits it in theory, so I wanted to know the practical limit.
