Angular has improved performance 30% from 1.2 to 1.3, and is slated to improve it another 30% from 1.3 to 1.4 (1.4 has a release candidate currently) - that is one of many reveals from ng-conf. Angular 2 has been revealed earlier that it is 5-10x as fast as Angular 1.x (depending on the task), which probably makes it notably faster than React. Performance is still something that every framework is striving to optimize - this is only a good thing when teams announce that they are working to improve their performance, mobile is still hard with the DOM. Each of the frameworks draw positive influences from each other, and don't hesitate to give each other credit - the React team praised the idea behind ng-animate for programmatic CSS transitions, the Angular team directly drew from React for the idea of unidirectional flow for Angular 2 and built on top of Ember's route-recognizer for the new router.
