No, seems to be twice as fast actually (this is still horribly slow).
On the test file given in Bug#26079[1]
(benchmark 1 '(re-search-forward "[\s\t]+$" nil t)) ;=> Elapsed time: 9.944000s
(benchmark 1 '(save-excursion
(let ((end-marker nil))
(goto-char (point-min))
(with-syntax-table (make-syntax-table (syntax-table))
(modify-syntax-entry ?\f "_")
(modify-syntax-entry ?\n "_")
(re-search-forward "\\s-+$" end-marker t))))) ;=> Elapsed
time: 20.496000s
