Speed Mario Bros/Fastest Completion at High Frame Rate?

Anyone know what the world record is for Speed Mario Bros. on Ultimate NES Remix? I'm not able to see that anywhere.

I'm curious as to how fast SMB1 can be completed when playing at higher frame rates. If Speed Mario Bros. runs at 1.5x the speed of the normal game, I imagine the record for that is in the high 3 minute range. If someone ran the game at 2x speed, I could see them getting a 2:30 with normal strats.

What about getting closer to 3x or 4x speed? The more you increase the speed, the more difficult it is to execute normal strats. At some point the slower strats would outweight the benefit of running the game faster.

Could someone beat Super Mario Bros. in under a minute at a custom frame rate?

getting in x2 2:30 is the equivalent to a 5 minutes in normal doing that at double speed dang has to be hard

@WookisDaOne thanks!

So the fastest completion is 3:45 (video link is broken unfortunately). I wonder what the human limit for SMB would be at faster speeds.
