What does the tag bad-asymptotics mean?

[sol]

Hi, this is not related to the code itself, but rather how it's used at https://matrix.hackage.haskell.org/package/hpack. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but I couldn't figure out a better place to ask, this is why I'm asking here.

I noticed that there is a tag bad-asymptotics, which is attached to three packages, all of them mine (hspec, hspec-core, hpack).

Looking at the test results of hpack I couldn't see anything unusual: https://matrix.hackage.haskell.org/package/hpack

What is the meaning of this tag?

This was just a personal marker/tag I started using to bookmark case-studies of packages which appear to share a common cost-model property (c.f. https://github.com/haskell-infra/hackage-trustees/blob/master/cookbook.md#best-practice-for-managing-meta-data); it's more of a coincidence that the hspec packages were the first couple ones I started bookmarking; there's a couple other popular packages that fall into this category as well, I just didn't get to catalogue them yet :-)
