Performance
Performance refers to the speed of execution, or, to a lesser extent, to the economy of resources used.
The speed of execution is the time it takes for a task to be completed, and usually, the faster the better. In that context, there is a distinction between unit performance and parallel performances, where several instances are executed at the same time.
The performance of a piece of code may cover its memory consumption, or any other constrained resource.
