In Pre-Covid days, I was shooting in a weekly competition at the local indoor range. Sometimes it was speed over accuracy, other times the opposite. There were a few times I shot the comp twice; once with my 9, then with my 40 (Glock 17/22, FS M&P 9/40). Accuracy was not an issue with either caliber and my speed/times were almost identical (9 was just slightly faster than 40). I don't find the 40 to be objectionable in recoil, especially in FS handguns. In light weight, compact guns; it would be a different story. Although, I have Shields in all 3 calibers and don't mind shooting them either.
