That wasn't really the spirit of the question as I read it. 'Performance' has a narrower definition than that.

The point they’re making is that there is no performance without tradeoffs and “fast” is meaningless unless you define what you’re measuring. Asking the question implies a misunderstanding of the intent of the implementation, OP was trying to subtly let them know.
