Velocity is most certainly one measure of performance.
If it didn't matter at all we wouldn't keep trying to find the ideal case size for a given caliber.
One of the primary ways we determine if a given round is adequate for a given species at a given range is by looking at the energy at the desired range. Energy is a function of mass, velocity, and ballistic coefficient.
Velocity without accuracy is of no consequence.
