"high-performance" could just as easily be interpreted as faster response time as compared to faster clock speed. So in that way they are "faster".

But real-time systems don’t guarantee faster. I was a real-time engineer for years.

Faster latency, not faster throughput.

Not necessarily even lower latency, just predictable.

In general usage, to perform means to do a job well, to fulfill the requirements well, right? But in computing in colloquial usage it's near universally used as a synonym for high execution speed.
