That means less performance and the bow will come out of tune.
Custom builders can use different materials than what are typically used in production strings. The materials are stronger which means less strands need to be used which leads to an small increase in speed. Maybe 3-5fps increase, which is nothing. The benefit is in the look of strings (aesthetics and physical durability) and that they will keep your tune.
