Water Pythons would be among the fastest growers, but I imagine Scrubbies would be pretty clear winners. I've grown Water Pythons and Carpet Pythons to over 6' within their first year (yes, averaging close to 3cm of growth per week), and Scrubbies can pretty comfortably get to 8' by one year of age (yes, averaging about 4cm per week). Even Children's Pythons can grow to about 90cm by one year of age. I've grown bredli to pretty close to 6' before one year of age. Pretty obviously, the Children's Pythons would be slowest, but that's because anything else can outgrow their absolute maximum potential (or at least come very close) within a year.

I believe Water Pythons are the Australian Python most suited to rapid growth. Black-headed Pythons are often grown very quickly, but some experts believe this is seriously detrimental to Aspidites, more than any other python. I can't comment on rapid growth in Aspidites from personal experience.

Speaking of powerfeeding, Jade Kong, my experimentally powerfed Water Python produced her first clutch of eggs a couple of days ago.
