I do not like using "Performance" here, that conveys that this includes
important options that one must set to improve performance, and it's
settings won't help with overall performance (buy a "faster" HW for that).

In short, while the name is not wrong in a technical sense, all knobs will
change performance on some axis, that's not really matching with user
expectations IMO.

Even just calling this "Options" would be better IMO, even better might
be to call it "Advanced" and move also the single advanced option we
currently have ("Repeat missed" in General tab) over there.

That way newer users are made aware off that these options are
definitively not a must to adapt to get good performance, but rather for
some advanced options for tuning/limiting/etc. ...
