What does perf blocked mean in VRChat?

When an avatar is ranked “Very Poor†on VRChat for Quest, it is hidden by default. It will show as a gray robot with the text “Perf Blocked†on the chest, and you can't see it until you click “Show Avatar†on each user you find wearing one. We do this to prevent performance issues on the Quest.

Correspondingly, how do you see blocked perf on VRChat?

If I remember correctly, it's in Safety/Avatar performance. You should see a tab there that let you chose what performance ranking you can see (so if you have it to medium, for example, everyone with poor or very-poor rank avatar won't show up).

Similarly, is VRChat unsafe? Yes, I know that VRChat has a well-documented history of offensive content and is extremely inappropriate for children's eyes and ears in a lot of cases.

Beside this, why does VRChat run so bad?

When your VRChat connection is laggy, it's usually due to a poor connection between 2 or more points. For example, your computer may be the Sender, and the VRChat server may be your Target, but there could be other mystery hops along the way causing issues.
