I do not know about documents about performance achieavable by 
existing ISUP implementations.

I don't understand how performance of SER could depend on
peformance of some other unrelated device. Also, you wish
to compare peformance, you need to refer to products
(SER, Southern Telecom's SS7 superswitch, etc.) rather than
to protocol specificitations (SIP, ISUP). SIP specification
cannot have 50 cps -- that's simply not  a valid measure for
a protocol spec. A broken sip implementation can have 50 cps,
of course. I heard of some that did.
