This link has a pretty good comparison.

Where did you hear that? That hasn't been my experience at all, particularly if you follow the tuning guidelines for production systems. Besides, in my years of experience developing web applications, I have found that which web application framework you're using is usually the least important factor when it comes to performance. The bottlenecks are much more likely to occur in the database and model layers.

Can I still use tags from struts1.2 in struts2?
No, you can't. However, if you want to slowly migrate an applicatoin from
Struts 1 to Struts 2, there's nothing wrong with having the Struts 1
servlet and the Struts 2 interceptors active in the same application. That way some pages can use the old tags, and some the new.
