PHP has a list of core functions that are bytecode optimised (thus offering slightly better performance when said functions are called) but to take advantage, the native version of the function needs to be imported in to the class where it is being used. There's a slightly more detailed description here, which also offers some benchmarks.

In XF 2.2.7, we did this to the core XF codebase and added a tool for add-on developers to do the same to their add-ons. In this particular update to Calendar, I ran that tool against the add-on's code.

Note, it is effectively a micro-optimisation and in regular usage, you won't notice much of a difference.
