#213 Is performantly the word you meant to use?

In http://svnbook.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/en/book/ch03-advanced-topics.xml this phrase doesn't make sense to me: "Subversion doesn't store enough information to performantly trace an object's history forward"

I went to college, but if you say this is my problem and close the issue instead of rephrasing, I guess I'll strive to improve my education until I understand what you mean. :)

You needn't question your higher education.  The word is admittedly a bit of a neologism, commonly used in the tech field to mean something like "with optimal performance".  See http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/performant.

We could fix it so it would pass OED muster, but ... meh.
