"Performant" again. That term needs to go away.
Use "efficient" or simply "fast" if that's what you mean.

There seems to be a general tendency for fields to come up with useless jargon. My favorite for years has been "deplane" for letting people off airplanes, but "performant" seems even more pointless.

Performant means time efficient. Efficient could mean time, memory or both. Fast can also refer to development time.
