Most likely something that had a bunch of notably useless code that weighed down processes but due to the LLMs training and the vibecoders lack of training neither could realize it until it was handed to someone who goes "Why the hell is this causing 3% more CPU usage"

You mean tests, which are actually important.

Both, there's going to be unnecessary calls that get passed over because "hey well it works we'll optimize it later" for a vibe coder who does test wouldn't realize are weighting it down that someone who actually looks at it can go "okay it's repeatedly trying to call X and X doesn't exist like that in this code, so it's slowing everything, lets get rid of/alter that"
